It's in the reject message you received. Like the first one: >>5.1.0 - Unknown address error 553-'207.172.4.61 - >>REJECTED: See http://psbl.surriel.com ' >I havent' run virus protection in ages - nothing >is going wrong on my comptuer Modern viruses aren't *supposed* to make anything go wrong - visibly - with your computer. They're just supposed to relay mail in the background without showing any outward sign of it. >and I have java switched off for the mail - >netscape 4.6 communicator. > >I clear the cache and switch browsers frequently >and don't download stuff from >the web and I don't open ANY mail larger than 45k >and use nothing but plain text. Run a virus scan anyway. Try Avast antivirus www.avast.com It's excellent and free. I've never had a virus infection on my computer. But I only know that *for certain* because I scan with AV software. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
