Help me out here please! How 'screwed'? I am not running an open relay 
according to testing via http://www.abuse.net/cgi-bin/relaytest. and no 
spam has ever emanated from my SMTP server (212.47.80.97  if anyone wants 
to try their luck). 

If I am on a blocklist currently that could explain why mail-archive no 
longer archives my list msgs sent to it. I know I'm not on Spamcop, have 
checked. Which others do you use?

The first and worst example was orbz.gst-group.co.uk and malicious  - an 
aggrieved ex-employee of my ISP, cix.co.uk, set up a blocklist and 
proceeded to add their entire IP block to it. But Orbz shut down Dec 2001.
