They were sending repeated messages to an email list that I run .. 

Same message over and over, they got around a 29.34 on the spamassassin score ..

It was some fat burning something .. They sent to the mailing list and the -owner address 2600 times yesterday.

It's an Internet access provider/Freemail provider of French origin who's 
obviously spanned to the UK (and some other countries). I don't see 
nothing "bad" in your logs other than you seem to get a lot of mail from 
them. Of course, it's possible that it's only spam coming from there, but 
"wanadoo" per se is not a spammer and these are genuine SMTP servers for 
their customers. AFAIK, their track record concerning abuse reaction is 
not good to say the least
