Mail to addresses at the excite.com domain is significantly delayed and may not be going through at all, or is going through so very slowly that very little mail will actually be delivered.
From our investigation, I see that this issue does not appear to be specific to ExactTarget. The issue appears to be on the receiving side of things, meaning the issue is with the ISP, not with the sender. I've contacted BlueTie, the outsource mailbox provider that handles inbound mail for Excite, and I'll let everyone know what I hear back.
Nowadays, the relatively percentage of Excite.com addresses on a typical list is pretty small; if you were to query your own lists to find all active Excite.com recipients I suspect the number would be very low (or zero). So, don't fret; this isn't likely to have any significant impact on your ability to send mail.
