I looked up in the mail log, which is probably where I should have
started, and found this on todays log:
2011-03-13 11:20:54 1Pyo2H-0001lI-TB ** worwor@bellsouth.net
R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mail server after
initial connection: host gateway-f1.isp.att.net [204.127.217.16]:
550-204.27.57.154 blocked by ldap:ou=rblmx,dc=att,dc=net\n550 Error -
Blocked for abuse. See http://att.net/blocks
But in doing a bit of looking around I found a setting that should
have been updated when we switched from live-helper to live-build. So
I have updated on my side. If you would be so kind as to try once more
to see if this assists in getting mailers to you and report back.

It is always best if the party attempting the build can attempt to
confirm on a local build to reproduce the error. The l-b.cgi interface
is not an all inclusive vehicle for live-build, just an attempt to
utilize live-build to make the world better and your life easier one
build at a time.
Thanks.
