Could it have something to do with the fact that the email address I am
trying to send to has a "." in the middle of it? Such as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Kevin,
It won't work with your 'desired' settings! But if you want to ignore my
advice, that is your perogative. I reserve the right not to answer when you
continue to complain that it 'does not work'. It does when the correect
settings are used. You might consider another server configured to perform
S&F and secondary MX chores.
BTW, the settings you are now using, makes you an 'open relay' and sooner or
later you will be hit by a spammer (maybe even one lurking on this Forum!).
Good luck!
Happy Holidays!
Daniel Donnelly
