Default Re: ??? Can't send from Comcast to Embarq ???

I agree with everything you said. I forgot to mention to Embarq that I get the error using Comcast's webmail also and my IP address should not be a factor. However, I do wonder if Comcast is passing along our real IP address somehow. I have checked an entry and I am within a range of addresses that are blocked. And yes, I am dynamic also. But I did telecommunications work in my past life and I have seen the IP address almost always stay the same. Maybe that is why the block is for a range because you will always stay within that range. I will check on that when I do the online chat.

I will do a chat this morning with Comcast to try and get to the bottom of our problem. If you are on send me your IP address. Do a PM if you want so I don't have to keep checking back.

I asked Embarq why they were the only ISP to lock my mail and they said that it was based on what servers subscribe to what blacklists.

I am blocked on 13 on 124 with 5 timing out. And of those 13, 9 are from the same company (SORBS).
