Sorry, my wording was poor. I meant to say that we had two legitimate
mails (non-spam) rejected yesterday out of 63 total based on
reject_non_fqdn_hostname.

Yes, comcast needs to fix their servers.

My argument goes like this: if enough people require RFC compliance, then
the ISPs with broken mailers out there will start getting the message when
their customers complain that too many legit mails are bouncing.

My problem remains that the executives here at work don't think that we
should be part of making the Internet mail system a better, more robust
place. They just want their mail.
