Hi Barry, Good show! Glad to see it resolved!! 73, Henry - WD4Q ----- Original Message ----- From: Shelley, Barry, N1VXY To: arrl-odv Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 9:42 AM Subject: [ARRL-ODV:9567] Earthlink Resolved The following item is going up on the web page today noting that the issues with Earthlink have been resolved. What we were able to get Earthlink to do, only because of the good work of a Radio Amateur who works in the CEO's office, was to raise their internal standards relative to arrl.net so it wouldn't trigger their automated delaying/blocking. I've been told that they were raised high enough so it shouldn't be a problem anymore. Given their earlier statements that more than 50% of all mail from arrl.net to Earthlink was spam, they must have raised it up pretty high. So, mail is flowing again to Earthlink's servers from arrl.net. Both we and Earthlink will be sending out a note to our respective member/customers probably on Monday. We're going to try and coordinate it so we're not pointing fingers anymore. Which is probably a good thing. 73, Barry, N1VXY ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EarthLink resolves issues with ARRL E-Mail Forwarding Service: E-mail once again is flowing between the ARRL E-Mail Forwarding Service <http://www.arrl.org/members-only/emailfwd.html>(@arrl.net addresses) and servers at EarthLink.net <http://www.earthlink.net>. The situation was resolved as a result of direct conversations over the past several days between ARRL and senior EarthLink officials, who were very willing to work with ARRL to eliminate the impasse. "Once we were able to contact the appropriate parties at EarthLink, they were very understanding and sympathetic to the situation." said ARRL Chief Financial Officer Barry Shelley, N1VXY. "We are gratified that EarthLink listened to our concerns and worked with us to effect a solution."
