I'm _not_ using CSI as the ISP, as I log on via broadband with BellSouth ;->. I've been able to send email through that network with Claris for years. I'm not sure what exactly you mean about verifying my setup. If you've seen the other msgs, you know that I've solved the problem as being caused by a bad email file forwarded to me.
