Hi John,
I am just a beginner to Linux, so perhaps I shouldn't dare trying to give
hints how to fix a problem like this -- my apologies in anticipation
therefore ...

I had a problem similar to yours a week ago, too, with Netscape, here at
home at my
single-user box with Linux on it.
And IIRC, after changing the mail-server settings in Netscape-Preferences
I got the the same following error-messages from Netscape-Messenger when
trying to send mail with it:
> An error occurred while sending mail.
> The mail server responded:
> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ... Relaying denied
> Please check the message recipients and try again.
IIRC I fixed this simply by changing Netscape's "Outgoing mail (SMTP)
server" settings to the the *correct* values ... (or was it the "Incoming
Mail Servers" setting I changed ...? I'm 95% sure it was the "outgoing"
one ...)
I hope it helps ...

Wolfgang
