Thank you for your help, Roger. 

Yes, I am using Comcast's SMTP server - I believe (I don't understand 
these things). I'm using Comcast because I subscribe to their high-speed 
internet service, and was thus given an email address by them. Since I 
had just changed over from using AOL a friend told me that if I got a 
domain name for myself I could avoid the hassle of changing my address 
again if I switched to another email provider. So I got my domain name 
from Dreamhost, and Dreamhost forwards my mail to Comcast, and my 
incoming messages are posted on Dreamhost's Webmail as well. But I've 
noticed that I get an awful lot of spam on that site that I don't get 
when my mail comes from Comcast.

Here's an updated response from Dreamhost:

At this point I'm considering waiting this out to avoid getting so much 
spam.
