Oh, it's not your MTA that's the problem. Sending mail to the BTS and
using the web interface are two separate issues.

I looked at the logs myself, and wasn't able to determine why Blars
blocked you specifically, but I assume it was because you clicked the
"report this bug as spam" multiple times (or for a bug log which
didn't have spam on it). [That's often a good indication of a machine
which is crawling the BTS for addresses to send spam to.]
