[arrl-odv:17302] Arrl.net e-mail blockage

Just for your information in case you get a question, the following notice is being posted on the ARRL web site as I write this note. Comcast only blacklisted one of the many servers that processes arrl.net messages and it took us a long time to even get them to admit that they were. Hence the backlog of messages. 73, Barry J. Shelley, N1VXY Chief Financial Officer ARRL, Inc-The National Association for Amateur Radio 225 Main St. Newington, CT 06111 www.arrl.org <http://www.arrl.org> Phone: (860) 594-0212 E-mail: bshelley@arrl.org <mailto:bshelley@arrl.org> Comcast Partially Blocking ARRL.net Forwarding Service Comcast, one of the largest cable providers in the country, was blocking e-mail traffic from one of the servers that processes messages for the ARRL.net Forwarding Service. This resulted in a disruption of service to those 5,512 ARRL members who have their callsign@arrl.net e-mail forwarded to a Comcast.net e-mail address. We have been in contact with Comcast and have finally been to convince them to remove the blockage. Their actions have caused a significant backlog of messages which will take the next several hours to clear. Unfortunately, messages that were bounced will need to be resent. We apologize for the inconvenience.
