I have gone to the queue many times and clicked on the Send One option but I
never get any message at all. It acts as if it is ignoring my requests. I
have done this after killing the smtp processes and it still makes no
difference....
I have no listservers running and have a total of 6 mail accounts using two
different domains (sharing one IP address). I have also come across an
issue where occasionally I get a bad username or password message when
checking my mail then if I try again it works......
Thanks for your help
