Could it possibly be that one of your users was reported as having sent
spam and that the company you are trying to send to subscribes to one of
the spam services and has your IP blocked?

I have called RCN who is the proud owner of ultranet communications
which is
where the email is going.

No one had a clue and not sure where to even transfer the call...

I have also sent emails to the noc@, abuse@ and postmaster@.  (The noc
email
box was full).

I have never seen anything like this.

I'd guess they are blocking your mailserver's IP for some reason.
That's
the only logical explanation I can think of why the packets would be
dropped from the one server but not others.  Illogical explanations
would
include them dropping packets based on your suspected OS, or a serious
networking issue (IE a very low TTL on outgoing packets from the
mailserver).
