Subject: Re: [Exim] Some domains reject Just my exim connections
Below is the output of traceroute. One response suggested that my IP is
blocked completely. I realize that the www and mx hosts have different
IP addresses; however the odd thing is that I cannot telnet to www on
port 80 yet can browse it <telneting host is directly on the internet>.
The other aspect is that I have recently gotten a new IP address.

To further complicate the situation:
    - my squid proxy is not able to browse a site "www.wdc.com" <Western Digital>
    - I cannot telnet to www.wdc.com 80
    - I can browse www.wdc.com if 80 is NAT'ed and squid is not used
    - Squid is working fine for all other sites


Is it possible there is a transparent http proxy somewhere in the route?
How would I find out?

I am really lost on this. Anymore ideas?
