Re: Comast vs. PR/bulk mail

**y*@sfo.com**

Try gmail. I got a notice from my internet provider a year or two ago 
saying that a bunch of the big providers (including comcast, and IIRC 
aol, att, maybe earthlink) were blocking mail from other providers. 
My internet provider suggested getting a gmail address! They said 
google had made a deal with the big providers to let mail through. 
They also cited some legislation on net neutrality. If you're 
interested, I can dig up the original message.
