At http://dsbl.org/listing?207.173.187.220 we can see the queue ID 
assigned by your server: <[email protected]>. This piece

sufficient for tracking in server logs. In addition, you know the exact 
time. How many messages per second does your system accept?

I have to note that "next week" attempt will fail in same way if you do 
not locate and fix the bug.
