I seem to have been listed on njabl.org for being open-relay.

Here is what they say:

This is an automated test message for the purpose of finding and
adding open relays to our dnsbl.  If you have any questions, see

How is this sneaking through the security on exim and in DA?
 
Here's the full test from njabl.org.

One noteworthly item is that the MX record for 'techwarepc.com' is pointed elsewhere so this server does not handle mail for it.

Code:
admin@seraph:~$ telnet rt.njabl.org 2500
Trying 209.208.0.15...
Connected to rt.njabl.org.
Escape character is '^]'.

If you are excluded from testing, connect again on port 2501 to force the test.

re-testing 12.37.6.6

I take it that techwarepc.com is your domain?

You've most likely got it whitelisted in SpamBlocker.

As mentioned in previous threads, that's a no-no.
