Your mailserver seems to be using a name, Mail6.sc.rr.com, that does not agree with the IP, 24.93.67.53 (or vice versa). Still, it's weird. You might want to consider a mail to the 'postmaster's at both ISPs. They should really work this out. It looks like you are doing everything right. -- Crist J.
