For blocked emails, it is quite possible the service you are with has people sending spam and other anoying content. There are spam counting services that moniter this activity and if a service name or website gets itself on the auto block list, that's it until it cleans itself up. I expect the service vwfans.com is with subscribes to one of these lists so that Lorne is not bugged with spam. I learned about this while working for DND and Sympatico. ca mail got blocked because Ma Bell wasn't filtering content and allowing spammers to hack into customer lists. Just a thought.
