Beat me to it. That is standard practice with most ISPs - you cannot send through their SMTP server from elsewhere (helps prevent spammers). Other choice is have a small hosting package that includes e-mail addresses and an SMTP server (my ronjones.org.uk one does http://www.compila.com), or get a hotmail or yahoomail or lycosmail address - or for this list one can post from the yahoo groups web pages.
