From: Gary on 21 Feb 2010 10:04 My original problem... "Same problem here. Started yesterday, 4/19/10. Newly created e-mail go out but not fwd or reply. Is it an Outlook or ISP issue? Happens with both Outlook XP on an XP machime and Outlook 07 on a Vista machine. I use BellSouth, i.e. AT&T DSL." ... has now gotten worse not better. No outgoing mail what so ever. No fwd, no reply, not even new msgs. Comes back immediately with 551 not our customer. Unless of course I send a msg to another bellsouth.net address. Dead give-a-away as to where the problem lies. --- frmsrcurl: http://msgroups.net/microsoft.public.outlook.general/551-not-our-customer-when-forwarding-mail-outlook

I can send new mail to the same contacts with no problem. The commonality in this thread seems to be former Bellsouth customers. I wonder if this forum thread will help? <http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r23833442-Services-Unable-to-send-email-via-mailbellsouthnet> FWIW, I am a former SBC customer who did migrate to the "SBC Yahoo! DSL Service", now called, "at&t Yahoo! HSI", back in December, 2002, when it was first rolled out. At the present, AT&T seems content to not apply much effort to running their email service, or to bird dogging Yahoo! about problems with their email service. I suspect that they believe email service to be a net cost, no profit service. Probably time to either switch providers (if you think a competitive provider in your area is better with email; but most ISPs are not), or find an alternative email service provider (which has the advantage of not tying you to one ISP). -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum
From: ddpinto2693 on 21 Feb 2010 10:36 I am having this problem on 3 different email accounts, only one of them is bellsouth.net. I saw a previous note that this was not an Outlook problem. I do not believe that. One email provider suggestedt his was a conflict between a recent OS security patch and Outlook 2007.

Update to my recent post. AFter pondering this, I now realize the mail.bellsouth.net ismy outgoing mail server for all 3 accounts. Later in this thread, I did see someone who contacted ATT/Bellsouth and got a 'we are doing some maintenance. check it later to see if it resolves itself' response. That sure looks like a 'we screwed up and we are fixing it' answer.
