The problem arises when senders send to invalid emails at an old domain. This "double whammy" will definitely send red flags up at the ISP. Let me know if that answers your question. Thanks. Hi Eydie,

Even though you are still using the old domain, you are still using the email address, and as such not an issue at the ISP level. The problem arises when senders send to invalid emails at an old domain. This “double whammy” will definitely send red flags up at the ISP.

Let me know if that answers your question. Thanks.

Sometimes the email addy in question uses an old domain, such as your attbi-to-att.net example. When they try to do a search to find that friend's email address, they might come across the old one, and send that address a message. In either case, Jaren, would the legitimate sender be put on some kind of spammer watchlist, for having sent messages to this old/outdated address? I ask because I have an old email that I don't often use, but it's still a good repository for business-related senders whose messages only ocassionally are imporant--and so I I don't want them clogging up my other addys. In this case, the address hasn't been abandoned, but the domain name has changed (even though the old domain name works). Thanks!
