Additionally, as of sometime since Aug. 3, RoadRunner is blocking mail
from *ALL* major ISPs DSL, cable, and dialup IP space.  Personal or
commercial, dynamic or static.  If you are using RoadRunner, you aren't
getting mail from myself or others running their own company/mail server.
I discovered this while in personal correspondence with an evo list member
last week.

Methinks they're throwing the baby out with the spam.
