Why are the emails from this relay being trusted? Have you whitelisted it or
something?

for all the mails we receive directly but RBL checks do not apply to those
mails sent via the relay (which is still about 50%). Thus there are a lot of
spam mails that get through although the originating mail server is
blacklisted.
