Your mail is being rejected by my mail server because the IP from which 
your mail originates is listed in spamhaus.org's SBL-XBL, which in turn
gets its listing from the CBL (Composite Blocking List). The address
is 66.195.224.10 (mailbox.iwaynet.net), which is the primary MX for
iwaynet.net.

I looked at the CBL FAQ (http://cbl.abuseat.org/faq.html), and what I get
from reading it (the third question, specifically), is that IPs get into
the CBL due to security issues (open relays, viruses, trojans), not for
spamming. I did a relay test on your mail server
(http://www.abuse.net/relay.html), and it appears not to be an open relay.

Hopefully this is a transient thing. What has your ISP said, JJ? Also,
are you unable to email other players through their regular addresses,
or just through their game alias addresses? (If it's the former, then
permitting mail from you on my end won't help much...)
 
(BTW, try replying to me at jduckelman@xxxxxxxx instead.)

Other conquests:

I believe that Austria conquers Posen (from Poland), and that I conquer
Palestine. So +1PP for Austria and Russia, -1PP for Prussia and Turkey.
