hmmm... I think I figured the problem...
they think... someone here is using their server to mailbomb someone...
at least for the last few days... 
and I was subscribed too ALL the freebsd mailing lists last break...
so... I guess that is why they are scared.. the increased traffic...
*chuckle*

if its something... I dont know what is going on... but if its
the increased traffic... 200+ mails everyday... I guess they are
kinda uptight about things... *laugh*

and yes, they block us, currently they are blocking the entire
school from the router... the router is alive... but it just
does not listen to us... :(
