Somewhat OT but are you trying to send from 71.254.197.56 which is a
dynamic IP? Most properly configured servers won't accept your mail
in the first place.

In any event, if you are sending someone else's spam then your system
has been somehow exploited. Are you using IPTables and only opening
those ports that you require. Do you have a NAT router?
