Message says domain gmail.com is blacklisted?

[Tom Dean]

This befuddles me somewhat. Any suggestions?

I just installed a blog with a contact form on my domain. Previously a static xsite pro site with virtually no traffic was there & no contact form to send an email.

Testing the contact form I got this in my gmail spam folder. The cc did not make it through my comcast.net addy at all. Site is on my host gator reseller account.

Message (I put in the x's):

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Does this mean my mail server ip is black listed or my domain?

Thanks for any ideas,
Tom

Tom,

From what I have heard and read, Comcast is the world's worst for blocking mail. I would contact them and give the what for. It gets ridiculous at times.

Thanks,

John

I tried to use a gmail account in my autoresponder setup on hostgator and I got the same message.

Spam I suppose. Hostgator/Comcast are really just trying to protect their reputation.
