Well, this was a frustrating discovery that I just made today: my server was at some point blocked by ATT.net for abuse. It would’ve been nice of them to tell me (and give a reason why). Ugh. Anyway, what that means is that if you’re on att.net or one of their affiliated service networks like sbcglobal.net, bellsouth.net, or pacbell.net (there could be more, but those seemed to be the main ones), you can send email to my email address on this domain (authormichaelhicks.com), but any email I send to you – including the offers of free books and giveaways – will be blocked. I know that this affects roughly four hundred folks on my mailing list.
Needless to say, I’ve emailed the ATT.net folks in hopes of getting out of internet purgatory. In the meantime, if you never received the four free books I promised you, please contact me from the email address you used to subscribe to the list and I’ll use an alternate sending address to get the goodies to you.
As the saying goes, “It’s always something!”
