Type : General Information

Detailed Description:

LAST UPDATE: 11/29/2005 4:41 PM
SITUATION: Emails sent from Comcast.net subscribers to MSN or Hotmail.com email accounts will be denied and the subscriber will receive the error "550 permit denied". This is caused by a problem on Microsoft´s end caused by a virus. Microsoft is actively working to correct the issue. No ETC was supplied. Abuse will continue to monitor the situation and updates will be posted when available.

Subscribers that have attempted to send emails to MSN/Hotmail prior to the block may receive the error message "Delivery status: Failed. Message could not be delivered to the domain - Hotmail.com. Failed to accept the recipients. MTA Response: 551" today as a result of the current block. Abuse is tracking the issue. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14926288 Thu, 01 Dec 2005 18:58:39 EDT Re: It is rejecting as I post this: error msg http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925493 WMLGuy : I guess they can't setup one way authentication or authentication for specific domains.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925493 Thu, 01 Dec 2005 15:45:27 EDT Re: It is rejecting as I post this: error msg http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925429 Suffering :

Looks like they are testing some kind of email authentication.
no... if they were using authentication to avoid mail relay then @msn.com or @hotmail.com couldn't use comcast's outgoing mail servers... comcast is blocking mail going TO msn or hotmail addresses. The only logical response I can see is because the new sober variant has hit MSN/hotmail pretty hard.

Reject everything until spammers get bored and go away?

Brilliant!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925303 Thu, 01 Dec 2005 15:18:37 EDT Re: It is rejecting as I post this: error msg http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925237 WMLGuy : Looks like they are testing some kind of email authentication.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925237 Thu, 01 Dec 2005 15:09:11 EDT It is rejecting as I post this: error msg http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14925223 TKJunkMail : This is the error msg:
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'xxxxxxx@hotmail.com'. Subject 'test hotmail', Account: 'xxx xxxxxxx', Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 permit denied', Port: 465, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

And it is being done by Comcast server; not the Hotmail server.
