All Non-Verizon Email Domains Blocked

Verizon has finally decided to fight spam. And how might you ask. They have decided to block ALL EMAIL DOMAINS. What idiots.

Re: All Non-Verizon Email Domains Blocked

The Verizon teck said that was the reason I was not able to receive any email

AND

Remote host said: 550 Email from your Email Service Provider is
currently blocked by Verizon Online's anti-spam system. The email
"sender" or Email Service Provider may visit
»www.verizon.net/whitelist and request removal of the block.

is the message anyone will get if they send email to my domain name.

Re: All Non-Verizon Email Domains Blocked

It's happening here too: people trying to send me e-mail from various other ISPs were getting a bounceback message to that same effect all day yesterday. Some of their e-mails did make it to me eventually; some as yet have not, and likely never will.

Ironically, while I was busy NOT receiving e-mails that I should have been getting, a number of spam e-mails DID get through to me.

Bravo, Verizon!

I'm not failing to get ALL emails, but a number of emails have failed to come through, including confirmations for site registrations for several sites. And, of course, meanwhile, plenty of spam's come in!

Re: All Non-Verizon Email Domains Blocked

While I did receive emails sent to my domain name this morning, along with my normal batch of spam, I still have not received the emails that were sent to me last evening.

ya know, why can't they just put whatever in the bulk/spam folder? I'd rather have to delete a bunch of junk than lose things I WANTED!

While I don't have Verizon DSL a friend of mine had this problem yesterday as well. He wasn't getting anything at all. Seems like they fixed it, well fixed so I can at least email him.
