if mail admins are this clueless about mx records, the future is
indeed even more bleak.
i'll explain it to you, slowly:
> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> host codemist.co.uk

This is the IP adress for that domain of yours.
> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> host -t mx codemist.co.uk
> codemist.co.uk mail is handled by 5 dsl-217-155-197-248.zen.co.uk.
this is what is configured as that domain's MAIL SERVER.
The hostname (and the whois record connected with the corresponding ip
address) clearly shows that this is a dsl-connected dynamic address
belonging to zen networks in the UK.

this is the reverse to the ip address of your domain, so to speak the
"real" name of the webserver its being hosted on.
oh, and from the headers of your mail to this list:
> X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.5 required=5.0
> tests=AWL,BAYES_40,CAME_VIA_USA, NO_REAL_NAME autolearn=no

See the "NO_REAL_NAME"? yes, that is from YOUR mail. It means that you
forgot to put your REAL NAME in your mail program.
bye,
