The <BR>indications are that if you are a bellsouth.net customer, since July <BR>10th there has been roughly a 1 in 3 chance that you will not receive a <BR>given inbound e-mail (from any source, not just the NSRCA list).<BR><BR>In a nutshell, when any server on the Internet tries to deliver mail for<BR>a bellsouth.net customer, it first performs a lookup to find out which <BR>servers handle inbound mail for bellsouth.net. <BR>Bellsouth.net has a set of 3 inbound mail servers <BR>(mx00.mail.bellsouth.net, mx01.mail.bellsouth.net and <BR>gateway-f1.isp.att.net). The 3 servers are equally weighted and are <BR>served up round-robin fashion.
Since July 10th, gateway-f1.isp.att.net <BR>has been refusing e-mail addressed to any bellsouth.net list user with a<BR>"user unknown" permanent error which results in the e-mail being <BR>discarded as undeliverable.<BR><BR>I've called and e-mailed logs and an explanation to several departments <BR>within Bellsouth trying to draw attention to the problem with no results<BR>to date. If you are a bellsouth.net customer (and by luck happen to <BR>receive this e-mail) feel free to forward this explanation to them. <BR><BR>Bellsouth, please do what you can to help solve this problem.<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR><BR>William Harden <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>Option:3<BR>First Name :William<BR>Last Name :Harden<BR>City :Decatur<BR>State :AL<BR>Tel :256-350-1372<BR>Tel Billing :--<BR>Time :4pm - 8pm<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>Portal UserName :<BR>Link :<BR>Browser Type :Microsoft Internet Explorer<BR>Browser Version :4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; <BR>InfoPath.1;
