Scott,
To be honest, a lot of what your asking is a little beyond me. I have my
Gmail account setup, and I'm assuming it was done right, as most of my messages
are getting sent out. So far, all I know is that the message is being
registered as being sent out, as the e-mail is moved to the sent folder. The
mail program also makes the nifty airplane noise to indicate that the message
is on its way out. I've tried sending messages from 2 different networks, one
in New York and one in Virginia, and have gotten the same result. After
reading some of the experiences that others have had, I'm going to go ahead and
send messages from the actual Gmail website as that doesn't cause any issues.
Thanks so much for the response and for the info.
Justin
