Your IP was listed not because of an open relay but because it was running an open socks proxy at port 20742. This is usually indicative of the machine at your IP address being trojanned, usually as a result of a virus infection. Have you done a full reinstall since 17th August? If not, your machine may still be compromised. Incidentally, your mail server is not actually secure - MDaemon has well-known vulnerabilities (see http://dsbl.org/relay-methods#SMTPrelaying and "Fake local source address") that can only be addressed by requiring authentication for *all* users, which you don't currently have turned on.
