Cogeco mail issues?
Howdy,

Since about 6:50 AM EDT (GMT -04:00) all of our outbound mail hosts have
been getting a mix between timeouts and the following back from
mx.cogeco.ca (216.221.81.26):

421 #4.4.5 Too many connections to this listener.

I tried from a few IPs in subnets that have no previous reputation (that
I know of, anyway) and am getting the same thing. Is anyone else
experiencing this?

Thanks
