It's also common to block e-mail that comes directly from hosts
on a DSL connection. This might be the problem with paasda.org:

# dig paasda.org. mx
paasda.org.             60      IN      MX      10 mail01.paasda.org.

# dig mail01.paasda.org. a
mail01.paasda.org.      51      IN      A       63.105.28.65

# host 63.105.28.65
Name: sub28-65.member.dsl-only.net

Right: a DSL customer. Perhaps they're sending outgoing mail
directly from this mailhost instead of via their ISP's mailhost.
