Calm down. I think maybe you've misunderstood something.
B. Johannessen said "Welcome to *my* blacklist" (emphasis added by me). This
suggests to me that he has his own blacklist, and as such, it is quite rightly
his prerogative to add or remove whoever he wants into that list; if it's his
list, he is answerable to nobody for it.
Assuming your mail server's IP is 217.91.111.75, it doesn't appear to be
listed any any of the big-name blacklists
(

Finally, you say "I've never spammed", but posting "Hi, just tesing my exim
4.67 configuration. Sorry!", to this mailing list is certainly going to test
some people's patience. Next time might I suggest that you wait until you've
got something on-topic to post, instead of posting something off-topic? Thank
you.

You're probably best off asking the administrator of that list, then.
Good luck,
