Re: Cox Blocks

Yeah. I wasn't too worried about the website of it. I was more aggrevated at the inbound SMTP to machines other than cox's mail severs was being blocked. You can use a DNS provider such as dnsexit.com and let the redirect be performed there. User type »www.mywebsite.com and dnsexit forwards it to »mystatic.com:82 or whatever. I was unable to find a way to redirect the mail other than setting a relay on the outside to forward to a different port for on my mail server. Hence I pay a little extra. I do hope cox upgrades their service in the area soon..

But it comes down to, "what services are you paying for" and "what does your ToS say?" If you aren't paying for a server-oriented service and/or have a ToS that prohibits running servers, then you really don't have room to complain.

If those types of activities are critical to you, find a service that allows it and PAY for it (and trust me, those services are considerably more expensive).
