Those people have some real problems maintaining their SMTP services. I
have seen their servers go down for up to a week. But they didn't send
that message then.

I have been a FiOS customer for about 8 months.
I have a humor/fyi email list which sends something almost every day.
I have had no problems with Verizon but have received a few messages
about hotmail and yahoo not accepting mail.

They may finally have fixed their problems in having SMTP servers which
actually accept messages from the Internet. I used to have queued
messages from our customers attempt retransmit every 1/2 hour for 5 days
and eventually bounce back to the senders because of Verizon's ineptness.
