Don't forget about the handful of ISP's that block outgoing port 25 (SMTP) unless it is directly to their own mail servers. I had one of two of those in recent years.

Many email services are refusing to accept email originating from IP ranges that are allocated to home users, since so many of them have been compromised and turned into spam senders. Look into either using an email relay (you'll have to set one up yourself) or run your application outside the home IP space. Just a guess. - -chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
