Can someone who's a mail admin at Fasthosts Ltd. in the UK/AS15148 contact =
this=20
customer off list? Messagelabs is rejecting random e-mail from one of your =
SMTP=20
boxes (error 553: Spam, exchange-out-45.livemail.co.uk/213.171.216.45). You=
r=20
phone number goes to people who don't know what a postmaster is, and your w=
hois=20
tech contact goes to the sales desk. Meanwhile, our ticket has been assigne=
d to=20
someone who wants to know "your e-mail address and password".=20
Hint: 1) of those is in the to: field, and 2) is perfectly useless - how ex=
actly=20
do you login to the mail server's admin interface with a user's address and=
SMTP=20
pwd? Further, not so sure about sending passwords about in cleartext e-mail=
to=20
some outsourced thing or other.
I've verified that neither us, nor that host, is in any of the major *BLs. =
(PS,=20
if anyone from Messagelabs is around and can fix the problem without going=

through Fasthosts, that would be optimal:-))
Sorry for the noise, list. This may be e-mail related, but it is operationa=
l.
=2D-=20
The only thing worse than e-mail disclaimers...is people who send e-mail to=
=20
lists complaining about them
