It shouldn't be, but you might want to periodically check your IP
address in the various RBL checkers - eg:

Can't you ask your ISP to whitelist your site?

Yes, don't do. Get a proper mail server IP address/rDNS setup. If you
are on a dynamic IP addressing system, you will get blocked
announcements sooner or later (e.g. SORBS).

That won't help one bit.

Even when you purchase a business solution with a fixed IP with correct
rDNS, the entry can still exist in SORBS as a dynamic range and they
refuse to delist.
Which is very good reason IMHO, not to block email for that reason alone.

What about using dyndns services? They offer (amongst other things) an
outgoing relay for dynamic hosts -- was considering an upgrade myself.
