I have a @home.com e-mail and it sucks ATnT wont do anything to fix the problem. I have been calling them for months and no help!!! Half the time people send me e-mails they dont show up and the other half they show up 8 to 15 hours late. Have you called ATnT yet? and if so what have they told you???????

I'd like to hear their explanation, that should be interesting. I get auto e-mails from lot's of different sites w/o a problem. I wonder what exactly is triggering Anand's mail to be denied?

I've used my @home account for testing all kinds of auto generated mail, from sendmail, mailx etc. I've had no problems. Is it just one of the @home servers or all of them? I see you're using ColdFusion to send e-mail the password, could it be an ATT/ColdFusion issue? I guess I'll have to try a CF e-mail to my @home account.

As I said I'd sure like to hear what they have to say, seems odd.

Update - I just had the &quot;forgot password&quot; sent to my @home account &amp; it worked fine. It took about 3 minutes. As I said is it a problem with one server or all of them. Another possibility (very, very remote) is the the recieving mailboxes are full, they only hold 4mb.
