MailChimp emails being blocked before reaching my account

A few months back I began not receiving from a business that send emails via MaiChimp. I had been receiving these fine for years. Something changed. Other users are experiencing the same, all have comcast.net email addresses.

I have disabled the block emails from potentially unsafe users via the comcast.web client. I am using the Comcast web client as well. The email s do not make it to SPAM or Unknown folders. 

Customer Support has not been successful.

Please advise.

Can you clarify this:

"I have disabled the block emails from potentially unsafe users via the comcast.web client."

Do you mean you enabled the "Safe list" in the account settings?  Or something else?  If not, then

Call Comcast security. They handle any blocking issues

Hello, @user_7b42d4. Thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums support, and for the details you have provided. You have definitely reached out to the right place for assistance, and I do want to help with your email concern. 

 

I would make sure you don't have any filters set up on your email profile that may cause any issues with routing of emails: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/spam-filters-and-email-blocking-new-experience. You can also check to see if you have xFi advanced security enabled, I've seen this feature can see emails and sites as a security concern and not deliver emails or block sites: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/using-xfinity-xfi-advanced-security. 

 

If you are still having issues receiving emails after checking the filter and advanced security features, I would recommend reaching out to our wonderful Customer Security Assurance (CSA) experts to have them investigate further: internetsecurity.xfinity.com/help/report-abuse.

All of the above has been checked. Something is still blocking the emails from getting to me.

Did you get a chance to use the last link we provided you to put in a repair ticket with our CSA team, or there is also a number you can call provided on the main page of the site the link takes you to for calling in for support with them as well?

@XfinityJustinC: Although not visible, the CSA link you posted has a final "/" at the end. For reasons I do not understand that causes it to redirect to "internet-security-site-web.wc-g2.cf.comcast.net", which operates on a private IP like 172.24.81.* and is therefore not accessible to customers. Attempting to follow it results in a "The connection has timed out" failure. OTOH https://internetsecurity.xfinity.com/help/report-abuse (no final "/") is accessible. Plain old https://internetsecurity.xfinity.com/ works too and leads to the same destination.

How do you unmarked an email address as Spam if it was accidentally marked?

In webmail, go to your Spam folder.  If the email is there, put a check in the box and then click on the envelope to the right of the Trashcan.  That should move it back to your Inbox.
