Thanks, Bill! 
That did the trick. 

That line was generated automatically by my configuration 
tool; can't rely on these things, I guess. 

the next big step will be to try to send and receive mail 
from a popmail/imap account other than my provider. I 
have been told by my provider that their system is set up 
so that mail not from their domain cannot be sent in 
this way; it will be rejected. I'll see for myself soon.
