Post #280,359 by folkert 4/2/07 3:09:44 PM Reply	No... not really... It was the blocking of mx.umich.edu I use SPF and DKID, the arpa or "rDNS" name has never been a good method for deterring SPAM. It only is used by those that do not understand SPAM and have heard "it's a good way" to knock it down. Now, the blocking of "dynamic" IP Address ranges is a position I am torn on. In any case, blocking based on no arpa is wrong and very stupid. In this particular instance it choked on the mx.umich.edu IP address being listed in a blacklist. My machine handed it off to umich completely. It was bounced on choking on the listing. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Freedom is not FREE.

Post #280,362 by Seamus 4/2/07 3:18:25 PM Reply	I think there is more to this story But I avoid dealing with mail exchanges unless I have to. This is the first issue I have had with mx.umich.edu in a while and it doesn't seem to be affecting other email. Seamus
Post #280,366 by folkert 4/2/07 4:15:06 PM Reply	Then how did... I end up getting a bounce from your real e-mail provider? the umich mx (9 of the 12) has again been listed (about once a week) again. The umich system has to my machine to defer, as the destination is being picky. Why did it list the IP of the umich mx? not mine? I'll be sending one to your e-mail directly. newsflash, the direct e-mail was completely accepted. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Freedom is not FREE.

Post #280,358 by Seamus 4/2/07 2:57:24 PM Reply	Go ahead and send it to my real email Actually, hey both are my real email. But, one is more discriminating than the other one. I am in the process of looking for a new isp and am thinking of tds metrocom. Any thoughts? Seamus
