And in fact, I have stripped most of the unnecessary modules and
libraries from the initramfs, and I am now moving on to remove all the
unnecessary utilities.

I suspect that you have reverse-moderated yourself :) I always include
your address in the replies, but I keep receiving a lot of bounces
from your mail-server (452), which seems to feel some deep disgust for
the stuff sent from my mail server. It could be that your mail-server
is convinced that the mail-server on which this list is hosted is as
bad as mine :)

In my case the problem is the lack of reverse-DNS, but atm I have to
live with that.

Might greylisting be an option in your case? I have been using
greylisting a lot, and it reduces the spam by 90%-95%, without
filtering domains.
