I get my email from Wisconsin Roadrunner, as you can see from my email address. I sent myself an email from another account, and that arrived fine. Are you saying my RR account just started blocking anything from IBM-Main? Since I started getting my mail again at 6:30 in the morning, maybe they did just reboot their mail server.
I can use their internet site to post from, but it is much easier to just use Windows Mail. At home in Milwaukee, when I'm plugged into my internet connection, it works fine. When I'm anywhere else and not on the Roadrunner network, I can't send mail through Windows Mail. I don't know if that's because I don't have something set up right, or if its just the way it is. Once I get the email from the web site, I have to go to the IBM-Main site to reply, like I'm doing now. Or else, I have to cut and paste it into the web browser, which is even more of a pain.
