I tried to send an email.  The email only contained text.  The text Cox 
objected to was "http://my_homebox_IP_number/"

Was the "To:" field in your email "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" or to a DNS-registered name, eg "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"


Note that I just sent a similar message via my cox account (through smtp.east.cox.net) to my yahoo account with no problem.
Date:     Tue, 29 Jan 2008 13:15:37 -0600
From:    "Scott Harney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  Add Mobile Alert
To:    "Scott Harney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject:    test


http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Obviously, the message had a real public IP address in the body -- the IP address of my home machine on Cox, in fact.

Are you sending an email
from your cox connection through a linux box to an email address on
the internet? Or the other way around?
