I am on Comcast and had an issue for the past 2 days. It appears to be fixed as of this afternoon (January 31). -- If there is a no_junk in my address, please REMOVE it before replying!

I am on Comcast and had an issue for the past 2 days. It appears to be fixed as of this afternoon (January 31). I'm on Comcast, too, and I first noticed this last night, though it could have been going on longer. I was prepared to try some of the workarounds mentioned in the article, like changing DNS servers, but it seems to be fixed now - when I check for updates it finds none, but the process looks normal and I get no errors. This reminds me of another issue that appears to involve Comcast and DNS. On my Linux computer, I cannot connect to the official Comcast IMAP mail server. I guess what's supposed to happen is that the offical address is silently redirected to another address. The workaround has been to use the redirected address rather than the offical address. There are lots of other users with the same problem. It only affects Comcast's IMAP server (possibly their POP3 server as well) and it only affects certain versions of Linux Mint! It's unclear whether it's a Comcast problem or Mint's. One of these days I'll undo the workaround to see if it's been fixed, but it's working OK for now. |
