Martin,

or some such "reputable" email service that you use for instances like this.
Lol. ok so
Yes an entry like
aol.com smtp:[smtp.comcast.net]
cs.com smtp:[smtp.comcast.net]
in mailertable is fine, but why advertise such a bogus means of a fix?
As well, I'm not hotmail nor AOL so little guys are mucked up than.

use Comcast's SMTP name, whatever that is.

And perhaps you mean ip-66-xx.xxx.xx.dsl.bos.megapath.net (66.xx.xx.xx) as
well..
None the less, this doesn't support the response of "email xxx@xx.com to
request removal"
being 550 access denied. Perhaps this is some sort of spam deterant?
Cheers Martin, Used to be out there in PacBell land too, 5 IPs via DSL.
Ahh, Luck guy.
