You need to check the data center's reverse DNS (PTR) name resolution record for your host's IP address. The reverse resolution translates the IP address into the host name. If that entry is missing and reverse name resolution cannot be done, many mail servers deny mail transport, because spammers have often been forging domain names and did not set the reverse resolution (of course they did not), so this is considered a major signal for spam.
