Actually, my isp is charter. My domain name (ehuffy.com) is hosted at pair.com, so i have legitimate access to relay.pair.com. I also recently realized i could also use smtp.ehuffy.com (which i assume is mapped to some common pair relay, if not the same one). What is odd to me is that the relay i use is not the same as my address or my isp, but it gets thru. eric -- Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
