I tried nullmailer, and it is, indeed, easier to set up. And I think it worked, too, but then I ran afoul of a "553" error in t&t/yahoo's smtp server - something about an unverified alternate email address. I'm guessing that nullmailer worked, but that at&t/yahoo have some additional layer of requirements for a working smtp connection. I've run out of patience with this and am now relaying my mail to smtp.gmail.com via ssmtp. That worked immediately without any of the at&t pain. Thanks to everyone who responded! John
