My 'setup of SMTP' is not BROKEN. It works fine. As I said before,
I only have had problems that I am aware of, posting to AOL. I get
error messages returned as I quoted previously.
BUT, since I set envelope_from, I am able to post to AOL.
What I don't understand is WHY I didn't have problems, since I had
been unaware of envelope_from and it is unset be default ???
