gmail domain is blocked

Somehow I seem to have blocked all emails from gmail in WLM using my
@cox.net ID. I finally called a friend on the phone because he wasn't
responding to my email questions about his health. He said he'd been
getting them all and responding to me but I haven't received anything.
While on the phone he tried sending several emails to me, both by manually
entering my email address and by replying to my previous emails. I got
nothing. I have Win 7 and using WLM. After hanging up I went to my own
gmail account and sent myself an email at my COX server address. I never
received it. So I went to my Yahoo mail and sent myself an email at the COX
address and got it. That confirms that gmail is blocked.

I have the individual listed in my Safe Senders list and deleted all of the
entries in my Blocked Senders list and still get no input from emails sent
from gmail. When I right click an email and click on Junk I get several
options that include adding the sender or the domain to the blocked sender
list . I figured out how to remove a sender from the blocked sender list
but how do I find the Blocked Domain list to remove gmail from the list?

Does Cox have a webmail feature? Are the messages from gmail.com
accessible through the webmail interface. If they are not, are they in a
spam/junk/blocked webmail folder?

Good stuff, Magnus. That got me on the right track. Emails from gmail
weren't present online at Cox mail either so I knew the problem was there
and not part of WLM problem. In COX email Inbox I was able to choose
Settings...Advanced Blocking...Enable Blocking and view the emails and
domains listed there. Bingo! Somehow gmail.com was there. I deleted it
and now can receive emails from Google (gmail.com) in both online COX mail
and in WLM on my computer.

Glad I could be of help.

Glad to hear you report the problem was in the Cox web mail UI.
A few follow questions regarding security...
- Have you recently used the web mail interface to receive mail from
senders using Gmail ?
- Did you receive mail from Gmail senders in the past in the Cox web mail
UI ?

If yes, and you did not block the gmail domain in the Cox email web UI,
then you might for security reasons consider changing your Cox email
account password.

Thanks, Winston. It would seem you suspect gmail might have gotten blocked
by COX due to a security reason. Possible, but I rarely use Gmail, Hotmail,
or Yahoo mail. I don't recall using any of them for the past 6 months.
And I don't use COX security, I use Windows 7 security. My primary mail
is WLM using COX as my server. . But....maybe you're right. And it's a
simple thing to change my account password.

I've a Gmail account and the only way I know of blocking a domain and for
it to appear blocked in the web UI is via a user accessing the web UI, i.e.
not Google changing the settings for a user account.

If web UI settings were changed without my involvement then I wouldn't
hesitate to reset my password.

My point was...if you are sure you didn't add (Block) the domain in the Cox
web UI settings, and if Cox didn't automatically do it then the only other
possibilities are magic or account compromise....i.e. change the password
and other security related settings.
