Thanks for your response. Here is the output of my telnet test. I guess I'm
really not sure what to make of it. The bolded text is of some concern to
me.
pc130:~ admin$ telnet mail.ipr.edu 25

Thanks again. I'm not necessarily looking for someone to give me the answer,
as it were, but if I could get some help looking in the right direction I
would be very appreciative.

Best to you,
Jason
