I suspect the problem is entirely at the subscribers' end and that there is little you can do about it. Sounds to me like they are filtering for some string in any message header (and not just in the From header).
 
Take a look at your the mail headers for a message sent to the list and see if the competitor's name appears anywhere in the headers.

Hi
I'm having trouble with one of the members of my mailing list.  This person's company has put a filter into their email system which will not allow mail to, or from, certain competitors of theirs.  However, it is also blocking all mail from our mailing list.  People working for the competitors are subscribers to the list but it is blocking ALL the mail even when it is not from members which happen to work for their competitors.
 
My questions are:
Why is this happening?  And what can be done to stop it (if anything) from my end.

Tracy
