That would be cool. Bouncing mail, that's becouse Comcast don;t tell
you they do not provide connectivity to the whole Internet..   And my
mail sever is on the part they don't offer you.

Hello!
Last time I checked, it was like this, if someone has an absolutely
imperatively important need to run their own mailserver, (mail going
in both directions), they needed to make a specific request. And then
convince or confuse the offended ISP.

Comcast, and Cox, and Verizon, and even AT&T (down south), and
possibly Megapath, (mine), normally want to know why. But strangely
enough Megapath, doesn't care about a personal webserver living and
running here.

AT&T didn't care when I got port 25 unblocked   i'm still blacklisted by every mail server due to a dynamic IP though. ;)

The TOS also explicitly allows web servers   or used to anyway   Mind I have a VPS and everything. ;)


(Bell ringing time: Dave there's a box by you complete with an
interesting gadget inside, currently being used by two cats as a
sleeping post, it really needs me.)
