It would appear that MCImail.com has begun requiring valid reverse DNS lookup before allowing SMTP communications. I hope you don't pay your DNS guy as much as you pay your antivirus guy.

I verified with mci that it is not on their end so it must be on my end. Does anyone know what invalid_ip_status means. Thanks Rich Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
