If you want to learn about sme server, then you will have to learn to read the available documentation.
Take a look at the FAQ linked at top of these forums, in particular read
http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:FAQ:Section04#Real-time_Blackhole_List_.28RBL.29
and make sure you follow the two links in that article [1] & [2]

Once you see what lists your server is checking mail against, you can then search the Internet for further details of those lists.
eg spamhaus.org
to see what their policies are & why they blacklist certain mail servers.
