Not sure, but is there a chance that your own EMail System is holding these back, because the target EMail Address is blacklisted in your own System ?

The blacklisting of actually harmless EMail Accounts happens frequently due to Viruses/Worms abusing random, legitimate EMail Addresses as fake senders.

Norton *ugh* ?
Well, everything can happen with this Bloatware installed.

But anyway, I never had contact with that EMail Address.
All I could recommend you, would be to see if there's either another EMail address listed on their Site, or try to reach then from another EMail Account or System.

LOL, Falconfly check this out got a messege back from COX----->

Your e-mail was rejected because the Cox-owned mail server that attempted to deliver your message resides on a blacklist. A mail server is usually blacklisted when it may have directly or indirectly been involved in mail abuse. This is a normal part of running an Internet mail service and when Cox mail servers have been blacklisted, we immediately work to resolve any issues to get them unlisted.

i guess i feel better it wasnt me but still, my mailserver is blacklisted roflol Shocked
