outgoing mail problem
I have just relocated my email server to another location and have another isp. I have changed my MX records to point to the new IP and I am now receiving email but on some address that I send to I receive the below error in outlook as a return incomming email, more or less immediately after sending.

Some other emails I have sent to myself at a gmail account worked fine?
I changed the mx records late Friday and it is now Monday lunchtime, does it just need more time to go through or do I have some other problem?

Then I have the problem due to using cable, I have found out that it has a semi perminant ip. (ip can change after 24hrs of no use or power).
I have spoken with my ISP any they advise that there are no other options. Cable is all can get it cable at this address.
Is it possable to use an cloud based spam fiter to filter my incoming and outgoing email, thus also giving me a better outgoing business ip from the cloud?
Can anyone think of any other solution as this is a big problem for me.

Using a Smart Host seems to be the answer I am looking for.
Could this fix also solve my Exchange server problem? You bet. Tell your Exchange server to forward all mail to a smart host upstream, which happens to be a Bigpond mail server, and good old Telstra handles my mail for me, once again, no authentication required and basically performing an open relay service. OK, no doubt Telstra is going to claim this is all kosher because it knows who I am since I dialled the telco, and should I start spamming it can shut me down

anybody know how this is done?

not all people have a smarthost available through their ISP
quite frankly it isn't the most common thing since your issue was pretty straight-forward in terms of being blacklisted and experiencing those errors. typically an administrator would work to resolve any blacklist problems
we don't know your environment in that much detail and would have never known that a smarthost was available through your service provider

I accepted my own comment for as the solution as it works.

The blacklist was due the to cable internet connection not having a permanent IP. Expert exchange user ambatihp had it spot on in his point 2.
quote: 2. Your IP that is given is a dynamic allocation or the ISP is not telling the world that they have given a static assignment to the business customer. Here is how you check that here (http://www.spamhaus.org/pbl/)
The ISP has listed the whole cable ip range in the blacklist and it can not be undone.

but if I do a check with http://www.dnsbl.info/ I get all green lights for my ip?
Are these two error's the same issue or are there two issues at work here?
