Not sure whether to gum up the list with this, or work with RBTI
tech support.  I'll try this first!  I've never worked with RMail 9.5
before, and if there's anything less than "clueless" when it comes
to email servers, that would be my level of expertise!

I emailed their IT guy to ask the name of their email server, the
port, whether it requires authentication.  He gave me the server
name, said the "outgoing port" is 1025, gave me a username and
pw for authentication.  

He gave me a username like this:  [email protected]
which seems weird because I haven't seen a username reference
a website.

I set up RMail first without using authentication, then using
authentication.  I pressed "test" each time and it said connection
established.  I then copied the updated RMail95.cfg file to the RBase
program directory, then started RBase.

I copied code from the help PDF file, the simplest one on section 6.1,
page 41, and replaced the "add recipient" with my email address, and
the sender info with a valid email address there (didn't know if that was
necessary)

The progress window behind doesn't seem to show any activity at all
and it almost immediately comes up with "ERROR - Cannot send 
e-mail message ()"

I didn't get any TLS or SSL info from the IT guy.  The log file echoes 
back all the Rmail command lines but doesn't show me any error messages.

He says it's an "AT&T email server"

Where to start?
