Your IP address, 70.62.90.185 is in two DNSRBLs we check, dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net and zen.spamhaus.org. The sorbs listing is of dynamic IP addresses, and zen is a conglomeration of several of the spamhaus.net DNSRBLs. Both of these DNSRBLs are widely used, thus it would be a good idea to either get a static IP from Road Runner that's not listed in either of these, or to use a smart-host for outgoing e-mail that will accept mail from your server regardless of the DNSRBL listings.
