Not receiving emails

I am not receiving emails from select external (non-Comcast) accounts. Those accounts are not receiving bounce back messages. For example, nothing from southsoundit.com is coming through. How do I determine all of the other emails that haven't reached me?

This conversation is no longer open for comments or replies and is no longer visible to community members.

This is a public board that anyone can read; you only have to signup and be a member in order to post.  We try to keep everyone's personal information off the boards.  You'd be surprised how many people post more than just an email address and thentrash Comcast for giving out their information, when it was, in fact, they themselves that had done it.  We try to catch all of the ones posted, but sometime that information is "out there" for hours before it can be removed.

 

I am not allowed to edit the information out and return it to the thread.  Sorry.

@perfpj I've checked the domain you are referencing - Comcast servers are not filtering or denying any emails from southsoundit.com. Issue is likely to be on the sending side. If you have other domains you would like for me to check, please feel free to PM me the details.

@perfpj can you have them try from another host? all of our systems support STARTTLS

I am not using a comcast email but rather att.net.  I had to change my att password yesterday and now I cannot get into my email on my cmputer.

 They can send fine to thousands of other domains/hosts. The only one they have an issue with is Comcast. Despite not being blocked, this sender's TLS connections are being refused? Does anyone at Comcast have some helpful information to try and resolve this?

@perfpj the same can be said in reverse - Comcast is receiving millions of emails from hundreds of thousands of other email domains just fine on a regular basis over TLS connections. Was the sender able to try a different host to troubleshoot?

Try creating and testing a PTR record for the sender.

Other than that, keep yelling at Comcast to tell you why.
