A couple of days ago Pierre Fortin made a wonderful description of this
problem (it might have been at the expert list).

To filter spams, Mandrake makes a reverse address lookup using the ip of
the sending server. If it can't find any registered name or if found
name doesn't match the name of the sending server it rejects the mail.

IOW, if your machine doesn't have a FQDN don't try to send mails
directly to the list. Use as a relay host your ISP's SMTP server.
