His IP address is found in a DUL, (Dial-Up List), or a DYNABLOCK 
(Dynamic IP Address Block) List.  One of his ISP's smtp servers may 
have an IP address that's in a listed block of dial-up or dynamic IP 
addresses.  From what I've read, it happens quite a lot that some 
ISP's servers get listed, erroneously, as a dynamic IP address.
