Hello Dan;
This is of no help to the issue at hand, But may be something of
similarity to what
I have experience over here, on for some of my customers??
I have a " Charter Pipeline Cable Modem Commercial" And in
Outlook Express & Office Outlook 2000 .......... We are unable to send out
mail
With both smtp & pop3 being "" mail.carrz-fox-fire.com ""
To the outside world, BUT I am running a " Mozilla Mail Client" on my 2000
Pro machine
And I am able to send out to the world on it.
Could you tell me if this is similar to the error that your clients would
receive??
**********
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by
the server. The rejected e-mail address was '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.
Subject 'just a little test', Account: 'Delphi', Server:
'mail.carrz-fox-fire.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 not local
host hotmail.com, not a gateway', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error:
550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
**************
Thank You
Wayne
