Does the machine which does the actual sending of messages out to the 
list have proper reverse DNS set up?   If not, those machines which 
reject SMTP connections from machines without proper DNS entries will 
reject messages from the list.

Your 208.213.149.2 does appear to reverse properly; however the 
resulting name does not look up in the forward direction, so a host 
which demands a match will ignore it.  But that might not be the list 
machine (based only on its name, it likely isn't).

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.  Teach him to fish,
and you get rid of him for the weekend.
