Any service provider who allows mail servers, etc., as part of the AUP will allow you to send anything you want from your server(s), not via theirs. This restriction is common on residential services, but they normally prohibit servers as part of the AUP, even though many of them don't actively do anything to block them other than making you relay through them.
Given the restrictions you're listing I'm guessing that you aren't on a business connection. If you are then you should be a) screaming at Comcast to give you what you're paying for, and b) looking for a different ISP because they obviously don't have any regard for proper function of their network or yours. They're just collecting your money. bytehd wrote: > thanks again Scott > > im just wondering if this affected anyone else.... > > Am i right to assume if your mx record and ISP r-DNS PTR records for your > MTA are correct > you let the MTA send its own mail?
