This could be caused by a firewall, which cuts off ICMP traffic. This is rather common these days, even if it is bad firewalling style to do so.

Another idea, unrelated to this: did you check the MX records for the domain jimbob.com and have you checked that the mail exchanger is working?

I hope this helps.
