Your server  is claiming to be asnmail.autosoldnow.local when it tries
to send email. When the other email system tries to look up the ip
address via a reverse dns lookup the ip address lookup returns
mail.autosoldnow.com.  These two names are clearly not the same so the
other email server will think you are a spammer.
 
You need your exchange server to claim it is mail.autosoldnow.com when
it tries to send mail not asnmail.autosoldnow.local 
 

        WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a
host other than what it really is (the SMTP greeting should be a 3-digit
code, followed by a space or a dash, then the host name). If your
mailserver sends out E-mail using this domain in its EHLO or HELO, your
E-mail might get blocked by anti-spam software. This is also a technical
violation of RFC821 <http://www.dnsstuff.com/pages/rfc821.htm>  4.3 (and
RFC2821 <http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/rfc.ch?detail=2821>  4.3.1).
Note that the hostname given in the SMTP greeting should have an A
record pointing back to the same server. Note that this one test may use
a cached DNS record.

Can someone check to see if autosoldnow.com reverse lookup is properly
configured? It says on dnsstuff, and dnsreport that reverse lookup works
but that it points to mail.autosoldnow.com, when I look up my other mail
servers most of them point to there-IP.providername.com 
 
I am asking because emails are still backing up in Exchange. :(

Andrew
