Hi Gene (and others):

Occasionally, an ISP will block mail coming from another ISP if the 
originating ISP has been listed as a source of spam. Normally, the 
blacklisting lasts only a day or two, but it can be longer. This is a 
real problem with bigger ISPs, because it is almost inevitable that at 
some point some spammer will use a large ISP to send spam. This is 
exactly what is happening now: my ISP at home, Planet, one of the 
largest Dutch ISPs, is currently blocked by Gene's ISP and by Comcast 
(so my mails to among others Jim Shulman are currently bouncing). In the 
case of mchsi.com, I have particularly bad luck--after I saw that my 
ISP's mail server was being blocked, I logged on to the mail server at 
my office and re-sent my message from there, but as it happens, that 
mail server is also blocked by mchsi! Perhaps Gene's ISP just does not 
like any mail coming from Dutch IP addresses...

Spam is annoying, but sometimes the cure is worse than the disease.

Nathan
