Can I get a rogers engineer who not only cares but has power to crush problem s to respond to this please?
Opening tickets with RNS seems to just get a null responce, "we'll look at it " with a hint of disbelief a customer ticket could uncover a large network-wide issu e.
It's an old problem that was temporarily fixed for a while, but is now back.

Maybe we can get them registered on SORBS. The irony would be very tasty. Maybe then they'll start caring. (Too much to hope for?)
Solution right now is to get all of my customers to tell their employees to not trust outgoing rogers mailservers to get their mail out, and find alte rnates.
I'm not the only one who filters by lack of reverse.
I'm also trying to figure out the Rogers angle here. Ideas?

Perhaps you should re-think your filtering policies. They are obviously wrong because they are not allowing through the email you want to be let through. Mark -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: marka@isc.org
