Hi all
I think our domain has been blocked from sending mail. When I send mail (setting outgoing mail server to smtp.saix.net) i get the following:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

Subject: test
Sent: 12/07/2005 08:37 AM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

'Recipient' on 12/07/2005 08:37 AM
554 Service unavailable; Sender address [[email protected]] blocked using rhsbl.saix.net; RHSBL03 See http://www.saix.net/accept.html

How do i unblock it?
 
Check your mail server that it is not an open relay. SAIX actively scans the adsl ip ranges for servers with port 25 open, and attempts to relay a message through that server, if it is successful it blacklists that ip, and prevents relay through smtp.saix net.

Check your logs:
