Tim,
        Hi, I use kmail 2.2.1, and havnt had this issue. I have notice sometimes I 
get error messages from list proc, and ocassionally when replying to you, i 
get bounce messages that your reply to adress is [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] We talked about this once, and if I 
femember right it was becuse of a DNS issue you have with your ISP. If your 
mailserver is configuured so as to not relay non-authentic DNS (ie, thwart 
spam) then this may be the same issue. Does your DNS have a MX record for 
www.bhengineers.com ? I hope not... and this may be why your getiing 
authentication issues. as in, www host is not an authentic mail exchanger.

I got a bounce today from listproc that www.bh..... isnt subscribed to the 
list and not allowd to send. (BTW, it did even go so far as to say that 
thowe@bhengineers was though... I will post your message that you sent 
earlier.

Jamie
