This can be a problem when using a mass market ISP, like BTInternet.
Such ISPs tend to use simplistic anti-spam filtering that assumes
that anything that doesn't come from the mail server of another
large ISP is probably spam. Although I can't say for certain that
this applies to BTInternet, it can also be very difficult to get to
speak to any support person that can do anything about this.
If some mail is getting though, you don't have an absolute block,
but the filtering is probably very sensitive to the exact content of
the email. Ensuring that they send plain text only, will usually
help, if they don't do that already.
It would help to have the full technical details of the rejection,
as it might be something other than a spam filter, and even if it
is, they might indicate which filter rules are causing problems.
qth.net is probably well enough known to BTInternet, that they mark
it as a safe sender.
The ultimate solution to an ISP that blocks your email is to change ISPs.
I've generally found that ISPs really don't care if they block more
than spam, regardless of what they tell you.
Some don't even have white lists.
Why reward an ignorant, incompetent, or arrogant ISP with your
money? Change ISPs.
