Ok, this is still not solving the problem, I'm not blacklisted because I sometimes cannot send to a server that I run on annother network. I have that server setup to accept all mail from this server ip. So why would I get the same error when trying to send to it. What also makes no sence is when I start then stop SMTP I can suddenly send to host that were not working only moments before. If it was a blacklist I'm sure that they would not suddenly start accepting mail because I stopped and started SMTP.
