I do: 102. 2006-08-26 14:52:55.946785500 8714 250 Queued! 1156600375 qp 8746 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> However, I don't see a QUIT from hotmail, so maybe hotmail didn't receive it. There is a rather long time (113 seconds) between the end of the data transmission and the reply, so maybe hotmail gave up in the meantime. RFC 2821 specifies that a client must wait for at least 10 minutes after the final dot of data for a reply, but I wouldn't be terribly surprised if hotmail (or any other large MSP) used a substantially shorter timeout. hp -- _ | Peter J.
