John I was going to reply to an earlier message of yours since you are having trouble. I don't think your mail is going through your isp's server. At least the ones you send to the list are not. >From the headers of your mail very ugly due to wrapping I put a line feed between each line for readability: Received: from John.optonline.net (IDENT:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [67.86.51.46]) by mx1.redhat.com (8.11.6/8.11.6) with SMTP id h5I2SpH08627 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 17 Jun 2003 22:28:51 -0400 Received: from John.optonline.net (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by John.optonline.net (8.12.8/8.12.8) with ESMTP id h5I2UV3x001914 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 17 Jun 2003 22:30:31 -0400 Received: (from [EMAIL PROTECTED]) by John.optonline.net (8.12.8/8.12.8/Submit) id h5I2UVkK001911 for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Tue, 17 Jun 2003 22:30:31 -0400 I had decided that your isp's mx must be john but now that I see your post I understand it is not. Either your mua or sendmail needs to be set to relay through what ever the mx of your isp is. At least I think that is not happening but I am far from a mail guru.
