I think it is time that we organize to get Verizon to rescind the policy of
blocking non-US sites. Please see my message on
0.verizon.email.discussion-general called Fight back: Join together to
oppose Verison's blocking of non US sites and take action.

Why do you think they block non-U.S. sites?

Verizon uses "sender verification". Office this bounces legitimate email. Many non-US
email systems are not implementing the protocol(s) needed for sender verification therefore,
effectively, those non-US email servers are blocked.

Verizon's implementation of sender verification has been flawed since its initial
implementation. They have mistakenly blocked legitimate email from the .GOV and .MIL
Domains !

I am a reporter working on a story about Verizon's email blocking,
which I have verified with the company. Please email if you would like
to discuss your problems with Verizon. Thank you!

David,
That is a pretty nasty response. Why should we not initially trust this
person? In any case, I will give him my address, and ask him for more
information. If he gives it to me I will post his message on the verizon
boards.

David, your response is not nasty. If someone wants info, s/he should
clearly identify who s/he is.

David H. Lipman · Guest

Thank you fellow Verizon user.

BTW: Bob did not post referenced information on Verizon's private News Space.

There is information that a Class Action suit has been filed on the subject matter.
