Their primary mailserver is broken, however -- telneting to it shows that it disconnects immediately after receiving the space after "HELO" or "EHLO". What that means is that they probably are using a proprietary mailserver that just doesn't work well. It likely accepts *most* E-mail properly (the disconnect is likely due to the excess packets sent when using telnet), but it shows that it is definitely broken. Given that it appears that you can only use their backup mailservers, and they are down or unreachable most of the time, it would account why a small percentage of the time mail is able to get through. In layman's terms: the problem is definitely on their end. All of their mailservers are either broken or are seriously overloaded. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers since 2000.
