Did you try to send the message yourself manually and see if it fails at one point? I mean something like this: telnet mx07.mindspring.com 25 helo mindspring.com rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] data this is a test . I use this to troubleshoot problems like the one you just mentioned. ------------------------------------------------------ Nitebirdz ------------------------------------------------------ Thus spake the master programmer: "You can demonstrate a program for a corporate executive, but you can't make him computer literate."
