I have been repeatedly affected by RBL providers incorrectly listing my

I'd in the first instance ask myself why my IP got into their list. You
wouldn't have had your server open for public relay in the past (or
still), would you? I believe tackling the root cause should be the first
step.
One primary "root cause" has nothing to do with the activities of the
system. The original poster mentioned he was on a dialup line, which
implies dynamic IP addresses. Many BL providers simply black list
dynamic IP addresses as a rule (since much spam does originate from
dynamic IP addresses). For this type of setup, its best to use the mail
server for the ISP...
