Chuck,

  This entry means that at some point, the machine with IP address 
216.37.48.203 was connected to on a "proxy" port, it accepted the connection 
and "relayed" mail back to the Blitzed site - at which time it was listed in 
the RBL as an "open" proxy.  Looks like the entry has been "pulled" (made 
inactive) but you might want to check it out further...
