So, those of you that still maintain your email systems, I have a  
question for you.

Do you use rbl checking for inbound email? If so, what sites do you  
use?

Ok, so that’s two questions, sorry about that, I’ll try to not be so  
intrusive next time. 🙂

So my response to KeN’s comment is…

Same setup here, had one domain was having trouble receiving email.  
Two of their (I don’t know how many) MX IP’s were listed on spamcop.

Had a setting that was blocking dropping rbl hit connections, changed  
that setting to not drop, and all of a sudden emails from that domain  
(legit ones) were showing up.
