Road Runner utilizes a volume based spam block from my
understanding. If you send over X amount of email in Y amount of time,
they block you. You need to create a rule that staggers the number of
messages you send to all rr.com domains so as to not trigger the
threshold and become blocked. See here for the limits:

So they'll block all the major ISPs smtp relays, but not the infected
PCs used to inject spam?  Smart.  Do their customers really accept this?
