You are on a blacklist at home along with most of the dynamic IP
space in the world. Barracuda was improperly using that list.

Barracuda has fixed this bug already. They are aware that it IS a
bug. You cannot possibly work around everybody's spamfighting bugs.
And you will likely trigger other bugs with your changes.
It was some time back now, but I have tested with Hotmail and
confirmed that they will silently discard mail from a non-spammy
host, if that mail has only one Received: header.
Email is a mess. All you can do is do things right, and hope the
other site does too. I know it doesn't feel like it, but this one
really IS the other site's problem.
