I don't have access there, but I can fill in part of the puzzle.  

At least one of the opemoko machines at 88.198.124.203 opens an smtp
connection back to the sending domain to verify the sender address of
any incoming message.  The smtp-back machine has messed up DNS.  The
claimed rDNS for that IP is "openmoko.org" but the forward DNS check
for that "openmoko.org" doesn't list 88.198.124.203 as a valid
address.  If the sending machine is checking for spammers claiming a
bunk DNS name will reject 88.198.124.203's SMTP verify.  The opemmoko
machine will then interpret that failed smtp verify attempt as the
verified address not existing and will decline the initial incoming
transfer.

In short, folks really need to check the forward and backward DNS and
make sure it is consistent, especially if that machine tries open an
outgoing SMTP connection (such as the attempted verification).
