NTL - what have I let myself in for!

[Mark Ovens]

Firstly, apologies for any duplicate posts from me. I think (hope)
I've got my mail sorted now.

As for NTL, some messages which I Cc:'d to Scott Mitchell
<scott.mitchell at mail.com> bounced due to a blacklist:

This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Each of the following recipients was rejected by a remote mail server.
The reasons given by the server are included to help you determine why
each recipient was rejected.

    Recipient: <scott.mitchell at mail.com>
    Reason:    <scott.mitchell at mail.com>... The IP address 62.253.162.43 is blacklisted. contact your administrator for details.


Please reply to Postmaster at ntlworld.com
if you feel this message to be in error.

NTL appear to be blacklisting their own servers :-O
