Fritz, 'thanks' but the given mail site [given] is on a BLACKLIST!

Test result for 216.32.180.12:

This IP IS CURRENTLY LISTED in our Database.
Please note that this listing does not mean you are a spammer, it means your
mailsystem is either poorly configured or it is using abusive techniques.
This kind of abuse is known as BACKSCATTER (Misdirected Bounces or
Misdirected Autoresponders or Sender Callouts). Click the links above to get
clue how and why to stop that kind of abuse.


To track down what happened investigate your smtplogs near 25.07.2011 16:11
CEST +/-1 minute.

You will either find that your system tried to send misdirected bounces or
misdirected autoresponders to claimed but in reality faked senders, or your
system tried sender verify callouts against our members near that time.

So you should look for outgoing emails that have a NULL SENDER or POSTMASTER
in MAIL FROM.

Reading your logs carefully it shouldn't be a big deal to figure out what
caused or renewed your listing.
