True, they have banned hundreds of domains and it is getting more and
more difficult to communicate. (Do you still have the bounced messages? if
so could you send them to andrew.maier_at_gmx.net? Thx)

Well it is not SimpleMail that fails, it is the fact that it cannot look
up the IP addresses of any host I have tried. E.g. it cannot resolve
pop.gmx.net or any other host I specify. If I use 213.165.64.20, I can
read my mail fine. So I gather that somehow the DNS servers are screwed up
for me.
