Thank you for the tip, Bob.  Apparently my server had been used as a relay,
and was "black-holed".  I recently figured out to stop the open-relay, but I
need to get it removed from lists like these.

Apparently this is a common problem.  The midrange.com archives have a lot
of useful information about recovering from open-relay problems.
