Re: primenet.com rejects mail from ibm.net

Unfortunately, I think this phenomenon is only going to get worse,
I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing ISPs start firewalling port 25
;-{

This action really bites those of us who *must* use more than one ISP,
and/or send mail from multiple sites and would like to decide where
followups go...

You've got (at least two) choices, since (iirc) you run sendmail:

  1) Use the ISP mailer for everything:
	define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp:xxx.ibm.net')
     you may also to need to define MAIL_HUB, but try this first..

  2) Use the mailertable to route all mail for primenet:
	.primenet.com	smtp:[xxx.ibm.net]  	

I don't remember if the ISP side was included in the recent sale	
of networking to AT&T, maybe things'll change if so - but its 
anyones guess of which way ?!?
