You are beyond what I have tried at this point and I have run out of 
ideas. Since your reverse lookup isn't icomcast.net, FreeBSD drops 
your email.

I did get another email from the Cuban mail-daemon. All I have to do 
is send you an email with a blank subject. If I change the subject to 
"Email Problem", I don't get a response from the Cuban site. They have 
to be doing something dumb but I don't have any idea what it is.
