New Not true
yahoo.com and gmail.com have no problems accepting email from me, for example. ameritech.net rejects my email. I don't recall whether comcast.net accepts or rejects my email.

New Let's give comcast a try
Set it to my personal e-mail, which is on comcast. You know the drill: my user id at burnsgroup followed by the full stop character followed by the TLA for commercial.

I'll look for it at home tonight.

New WOW!
Mike, due to a family emergency yesterday (my 2yo granddaughter was admitted to the hospital w/ a bowel blockage...details later), I was unable to get to the check. So this means that Comcast, with all the self-righteousness it can muster without thoroughly embarrasing itself, thinks that your carrier (is it ATT) is a spamm supporter, or that you at mikevitale, etc is a known spammer? If it is the latter, I will write blacklist_comcastnet@cable.comcast.com and tell them to knock it off!

thanx-

No, not that at all.

My ISP is WideOpenWorst cable.

I pay them $10 a month for the privilege of having a static IP address on their network.

Since this IP address is not a *business* IP address, it's in the residential section of their IP block.

Because it's a residential IP, it's not truly considered a static IP address, even though I'm paying for exactly that.

Because it's not really a static IP, it's considered a dynamic IP.

Dynamic IP blocks are listed in RBLs and whatnot.

I don't spam. AFAIK, my ISP doesn't officially support spamming. But when I send email through the webserver sitting at my knee, it's coming from a residential/dynamic IP, and most sites block it.

I should be over this hump in the next couple of weeks or so...I hope this is only temporary.

New Got it.
I'll still sent a nastygram to that Comcast address, and tell them to let you through. It may not help, but it'll at least make me feel better. (How soothing it is to blast a wenis outfit like Comcast for making assumptions!)

New Comcast are aggressive about spammable IPs.
The support are of the company I work for has a special section in their helpdesk software for email domains that filter email a bit too aggressively. Comcast is one of them.
