Mike,
I got your messages but E-mail to you is still bouncing. This is one of
FOUR bounced messages that I got this morning. You need to contact your ISP
and find out what the hell is going on.

Joe, could it be that this is maybe something on your side?
It sounds somehow similar to my problem.

Looks to me like mx01.mail.bellsouth.net's smtp server is
overloaded/unreachable/down/etc.
<dogas(a)bellsouth.net>et>... Deferred: Bad file
number
Reporting-MTA: dns; ms-smtp-02.tampabay.rr.com
Remote-MTA: DNS; mx01.mail.bellsouth.net
However, this is really just a warning, as the mail will sit around on
ms-smtp-02.tampabay.rr.com for the next 2 days retrying until the mail
gets delivered or it finally gives up.
Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours
Will keep trying until message is 2 days old
Not what I'd consider broken, quite yet.

yeah, the kernel (or the smtp server process itself) ran out
of usable file descriptors, so too many open files. Which
probably means too many server-side SMTP sockets, meaning
someone DOS'd it.
(willingly or not ;-)
