Well the issue here is with sourceforge.net. They don't seem to care 
about email protocols that have been established to verify the security 
of email to it's users. The email header explicitly shows

Received-SPF: softfail (sog-mx-3.v43.ch3.sourceforge.com: transitioning 
domain
of gmx.de does not designate 69.252.207.30 as permitted sender)
client-ip=69.252.207.30; envelope-from=herbysmusic@gmx.de;
helo=comomta-ch2-02v.sys.comcast.net;

This should be rejected if you ask me, But maybe it is too restrictive 
for SF needs.

Hence, herby is now blocked as well as the offending IP address. Either 
that or gmx.de needs to update their DNS txt records and provide the 
appropriate IP address in the SPF record. But why should they if said 
email server is configured to be an open relay???

The offending email server that seems to be an open relay is black 
listed for a reason
http://origin.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=blacklist%3a69.252.207.30&run=networktools

As Edward says though, this seems to be coming from his PC whether 
knowingly or not.

Best;
Jasin

What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you? Monitors network bandwidth and traffic
patterns at an interface-level. Reveals which users, apps, and protocols are 
consuming the most bandwidth. Provides multi-vendor support for NetFlow, 
J-Flow, sFlow and other flows. Make informed decisions using capacity planning
reports. http://sdm.link/zohomanageengine
