Several months ago I could no longer deliver to @kc.rr.com, and this went on 
for months, finally mx records changed one day and all of a sudden its working 
again. I have to wonder if that wasn't some kind of test or mistake, and then 
they realized that yes, customers do still use those addresses.

Subject:[mailop] Is Spectrum trying to sunset rr.com and twc.com emails?
To:mailop@mailop.org; 
A client got an email that appeared to be from Keap, or maybe InfusionSoft, 
suggesting that Spectrum was trying to do that, and that users shouldn't add
contacts with those emails unless they were "bone-fide" (which was my only
hint)...

but my experience of email carrier buyouts is that no-one *ever* sunsets the
domain names, cause there's no real reason to do so, and it pisses off 
end-users.

The email also pointed to this domain name, which looks semi-official, and
I can't decide if the whole thing is some clever spear-fishing attempt, or
just someone who misunderstood something and is trying to be helpful.

Does anyone on the list know if there's such a sunset policy in process?

Cheers,
