I am not explaining properly/sufficiently. Yahoo *requires* your posting addr matches your smtp. Mine does not and I will not open *more* spam floodgates. I post via my isp using a gmail addr and my isp smtp. It does not match yahoo's req's as the posting addr and smtp do not match. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
