Yes I do for two reasons. One, as I said a few times earlier on this thread I get email from all over the world from international corporations and institutions. Not just my French ISP. And two, some people just freak out when their email doesn't go through and they think the world is coming to an end. If you debug the problem you will likely see a very good reason for why your email didn't go through.
And my French ISP wasn't
unblocked by Verizon. It was never blocked in the first place since they are a well run ISP that takes reasonable steps to prevent spammers on their network. Perhaps some of the ISP's that may be getting blocked by Verizon probably haven't chosen to take these steps to prevent spammers?
