I'm using a dynamic ip address in my smtpd server and I have problems
with black lists.

Can I use gandi email account associated to my domain to relay mails to
other destinations from my smtp server (via auth smtp)?.

    If you activated the new Gandi email service, you should. I'm not sure
whether the process is described in English somewhere, though. More
important: warning, GandiMail is still in beta, so you probably should not
use it for important emails for now. But everybody is working hard on it,
so it should soon be quite robust. :-)

well... I changed my domain to gandi, I activated gandi email service,
and configured my postfix server to relay some mails using
relay.mail.gandi.net using smtp-auth... all worked fine...

but from yesterday... I can see dropped mails again because of:

status=bounced (host relay.mail.gandi.net[217.70.184.8] said: 55
4 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [xxxxxxxxx] blocked using
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org;

I have a dynamic ip address and maybe some days ago, it could be owned
by a spam system, but not now! why are you using spamhaus black lists
if I'm using smtp-auth?...

that is wrong... if I'm authenticating you shouldnt use a black list!
