At first it seemed your email address was blacklisted, but upon further investigation it seems your email server (scc-mailrelay.att.net<http://scc-mailrelay.att.net>) has blacklisted the mail list server at elegosoft.  Note that the elegosoft server is based in Germany.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give them a call to see what the problem is.

AT&T actually does it's mail hosting through Yahoo mail, so they might actually be the ones doing the blacklisting. I'm going to do some poking around on this end; and I'll send you an email if I find anything noteworthy.

Thank you.
