We have actively used an ntlworld account for ~1year, but few months 
ago we started receiving messages from friends/coworkers (using other 
adresses) that they could not get their emails through. The emails were 
coming from different ISP in Italy, thus I guess that the problem is in 
ntlworld.
We solved the problem scrapping that account...
