I am a long time Bellsouth.net DSL customer here in South Florida (now AT&T) and as of recently I am having major problems sending emails to certain specific parties from my home office. I get emails back saying "Content Rejected" or "Not Accepted for Policy Reasons" no matter even which return address that I use and no matter if I send them from Eudora or AT&T webmail . Anyone else having the same issues?

According to what I read online, AT&T recently gave over control of their mail servers to Yahoo (believe it or not) and they have some aggressive spam filtering that is stopping legitimate emails from being sent and being received in many cases and a lot of customers are up in arms about this. I do have my own mail server for one of my domains on my hosting package so I can receive and download emails to my computer successfully with Eudora using my mail.domainname.com server address. But when I send an email, to certain parties, I guess it still has to go through AT&T somehow on this end and they still get blocked! Anyone have any suggestion how to get around this? I called some AT&T techs from tier 1 and tier 2 support in both India and America and those people were totally clueless. This is costing me a lot of time and aggravation to keep re-sending emails over and over again.
