Ralph,
New data! I did your optioned send below, except I used -port 2525 and it went! > send -snoop -mts smtp -server mail.eskimo.com -port 2525 I sent to myself and it came around. So what is the difference between send with no options -- which still doesn't work, and send optioned as above??? Cheers, Stewart P.S. here is the trace from the optioned send: What now? send -snoop -mts smtp -server mail.eskimo.com -port 2525 Trying to connect to "mail.eskimo.com" ...
