One more follow-up worth mentioning.... I was able to contact SimpleNet (aka Yahoo! Servers) today and in short order, and very responsibly, they quickly added rDNS for me. Kudos to Raaf and company, thanks guys! -Jim P.

Chris at UUNet help determine this is a rDNS issue. att.net seems to have started rejecting email from mail servers that don't have a proper reverse DNS entry. This is a good thing, even though it is causing me some problems at the moment. Thanks Chris.

Is anyone seeing problems delivering email to att.net? I see about 50% rejected, 50% accepted. The 50% accepted never make it to the endusers. Been like this for the last 36 hours. Anyone else?
