Thanks everyone. If you guys get this, then everything is working fine.
I've turned off "Refuse Null Senders", changed my relay options to "Relay
For Addresses 208.170.56.128, Subnet Mask 255.255.255.128", and I put in
Dooz's 'Kill File'.
One more time, let's see if you guys can hack this baby now!!

Yes that will cover you, but if you are a big operation I would move your
mail server to a full class C' block. Having it on a partial has a lot of
drawbacks..
