In the forums, we have had many instances where the first (sometimes 2 or 3) 
contacts do not know that the back end made a change and when they got deep 
enough into support, they found that blocking of outgoing messages was going 
on.  Some of the blocking seen in those threads may have been based on the 
spamcop.net domain (we son;'t want spamcop reports against our server so we 
will block all messages going there) being sent to while other blocking has 
been based on the attached spam messages,  Try forwarding to spamcop and 
another service (yahoo, for instance) and see if the messages reach the 
alternative.  Forwarding to the same address you are sending from may no 
prove anything because it may be sent back to your inbox before the 
processing that is blocking it.  It has been confirmed many times on the 
spamcop side that there is no blocking of incoming messages to the reporting 
service.

There are 2 FAQ entries dealing with this issue:

submittals blocked by your ISP?
