I too faced the same problem while sending through sancharnet server. Since they had told to put ip for smtp I was using 61.1.128.46 and one fine day the same ip was giving me the above message when I tried to send mail to any non sancharnet email id. Thus the posts to the mailing lists too were not going through. Than I thought of using the hostname directly smra.sancharnet.in and than the mails got relayed and the ip showed as 61.1.128.45. Now I don't face any problems.
