Greetings Thomas,
Thanks for the info, I plugged it in and hopefully it will work. Have
about 200+ domains that I am hosting and trying to relay mail for. Just
for my understanding, where did you get this information? I would like to
understand it a little better for future use. Thanks again,
Anthony
