Hotmail blocking Comcast emails
Ayuh. If you're a Comcast customer, and you've been trying to email Hotmail and getting your messages bounced backed to you telling you that your IP has been reported as being abused, you're not alone, and no, you don't have any weird spyware (that I know of).
I contacted Comcast this morning and they are aware of the problem although they have no ETA on solving the issue; they claim (and I believe them) that Hotmail/MSN has to resolve it on their end.
Anyway, as of this weekend, sending mail to Hotmail/MSN addresses was working; as of this morning, it was not.
That's all I can tell you. Hang in there. If you need to get a message to a Hotmail user, trying using a Hotmail or Live account of your own. That will go through -- I've tested it.
Good luck...guess we just have to wait.

Is this still a problem? My parents can't send emails from their Comcast account to my Hotmail account for the same reason......and it's almost a month later.
From what I understand, it's a problem from time to time, but the initial problem I listed here was resolved.
Often when they're taking down some big spam king this kind of thing happens. Go to Comcast, get a live rep, online or off, and ask them if they know about. If they do, they'll tell you.
