Any Comcast email users out there?

Post by Venture » Wed Jul 30, 2008 7:00 pm

If you use Comcast for your email account (such as yourname@comcast.net), can you let me know if you get notifications to which you subscribe at these forums? You can choose to be notified of replies in topics, or you can subscribe to entire forum (which means you'll get an email whenever someone posts in that forum).

The reason I ask:
In the past, I used a Comcast account for my email address, and found that notifications sent to me from my campaign website were blocked by Comcast. Comcast puts servers on blacklists, and shared servers (such as this one) often get on the blacklist, because all it takes is one spammer to slip through the hosting company's filters, and suddenly spam is coming from that server before the hosting company can shut down the spammers account. Unfortunately, that gets the whole server blacklisted by big ISP's like Comcast, and affects all the other sites on that server (not just the spammer).

With my campaign site, I use an SMTP plugin to send any notifications from another email account, rather than from the server. I can probably do that here, but before spending the time I want to see if it is needed.
