Thanks William, that is what I figured. The little guy loses again. Have a great day!

It is also quite possible that these ISPs whitelist each other's known IP blocks, which would speed-up delivery by giving them less tests to run. Add that to the fact that they are most likely pulling the IP addresses of large ISPs out of their cache, rather than having to do individual lookups for small ISPs, and you can see why the big guys get what seems like preferential treatment.

Heck even dnsreports.com has had a hard time connecting their email servers all day long. I am probably being ignorant and there is preferential treatment for the big ISPs and email services?? Oh well, how is that 2006 going?
