You are correct a quick check of the log shows the message you sent and the fact that it was returned to you. So This leads me to believe that it is my incompetence and not my ISP that is at fault here. (and hopefully the former can be overcome whereas the latter would be a bit more troublesome) Thanks so very much for your help and patience, Johnny Poston
