It's almost certainly because your machine is identifying itself
incorrectly, pretty much the same way a machine taken over by a spammer
would.

Upon connecting to a remote server, your machine is sending back this
string:

EHLO ?192.168.1.3?

This is invalid. The EHLO string must be a fully-qualified domain name
resolveable in DNS or an address literal (enclosed in square brackets,
not question marks), and that address should be your public IP address,
not a private address.

Fix that and filters like SpamAssassin etc. will be less prone to flag
your mail as spam.
