A while back I was working for a company and set up a little python script to 
send out maintenance emails for some equipment we had set up in the field. The 
script collected information about the equipment composed an email and sent it 
out to interested persons. Then I left the company and they changed their ISP 
and got a new IP address. Now the emails are not getting through. The email 
server is the same as before but it is not working. Below is the error messaage 
that is reported by the script.

Does anyone have any ideas where the trouble is and what can be done about it? 
The little bit about:
"reply: retcode (557); Msg: This mail server does not accept mail addressed to 
aninterestedper...@yahoo.com" 
seems to be telling but I do not know why the server would respond this way.



Thank you.
