Yep.. Try putting your IP address in at:
http://relays.osirusoft.com/cgi-bin/rbcheck.cgi?addr

It's listed in at least three. Someone could have been faking the IP
address they came from (IP spoofing), they could have been there for a
while (in the RBL lists) but the mail administrators only recently
started using DNSbl lists on your recipients end. etc.. Could be a lot
of reasons.

1. The error is specifically related to IP, not to MUA (Mail User
Agent).

2. You yourself state you aren't using the X-mailer header. I don't
see the X-mailer header in the messages you sent to the list, so
there's no way for the recipient to determine you're using The Bat.
They might label you a spammer because you don't have an X-mailer
header, but that isn't the case here.

Like I said, the mail admins for the recipients might have just
started using DNSbl. It happens all the time. We have a system here at
work called CityWatch which send out mass e-mail in case of emergency.
In the past few months we've started getting more and more rejections
(mainly for a bad reverse lookup).
