That's good to hear.  When I first tried this in the old days, I only tried 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", not knowing the proper format, and was disappointed that it didn't 
work.

I'd recommend using "user@[ip.ip.ip.ip]" if you can, just because it's the proper 
format (technically, MTAs *should* reject [EMAIL PROTECTED]).  Perhaps I'm just a 
purist.  <G>
