Bill,

It sounds like your ISP is running an open mail relay (spammers use these
to hide their identity but I won't go into the details), and they've been
blacklisted as a result - as they should be, in my opinion.  I can't test
it for sure because the PDML archives don't give the sender's email address
(which prevents spam harvesting)... which is why I can't reply to you
privately :)

Not all ISPs use the blacklisting services which is why mail to most people
(eg Hotmail) gets through.  I couldn't believe that your ISP had the nerve
to suggest you get your friends to change ISP's!  If I were you I'd dump
them and go elsewhere.

Cheers,

- Dave.
