>What's in the logs?
The reason I want to relay aol.com email through our ISP is because, of late
(only the last few weeks), AOL recipients haven't been receiving our emails.
Here's what the log file looks like WITHOUT the router relay entry:
09:43:32 4 SMTP Line 394 created for aol.com, [S.0000058719]

Looks like it sends, right? But they never receive it. I was hoping that
relaying through our ISP would solve this issue. Here's what the log looks
like when both aol.com and maccentricsolutions.com are relayed (aol.com =
[EMAIL PROTECTED]), and I'm sending the same message to both:

In this case the messages weren't suspended, they seem to have gone through
fine... but this time nothing gets through, not even to my address
@maccentricsolutions.com. I don't have low-level logs for when the relayed
messages were suspended yesterday.
I'm baffled. Suggestions? Thanks!
