RES: Email oddity

["Rubens Lehmann" <rubens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

Seens to be some blocking issue, such as SPF.

When you "send from the i" what exactly that means? 

Where is your mail server? The i sends mails directly, or it relays on
another server?

Also need same answers for Outlook, it sends mails by which server?

Try to send both mails from i and Outlook, not to Cox, but to some server
which accepts both, then try to find differences on received message
headers.

Regards,

Rubens

Assunto: Email oddity

I was asked, to ask, if anybody has seen this.  

Guy here attempts to send an email from the i to his personal email account
at cox.net.  Never gets it.  He can have the i send to my personal email and
all is well.  He can send an email from Outlook to his Cox account, and that
goes through as well.

I have suggested to him that Cox may be doing address verification, and that
what he has chosen for a sender name does not match, exactly, the registered
name in the mail server.  The i is NOT the mail server.

Any ideas as to why a mail generated from Outlook would go through to Cox,
but not from the i?  

MAILTOOL would be nice, but not likely an option.
