Turned out that I had some old settings from when visualfarms.com was a virtual domain under my first server. When I moved it to its own machine and didn't getrid of the old settings, whenever I tried to send mail to visualfarms.com, the old settings tripped it up. Now everything works! And thanks for your help getting me into range of finding the problem. I guess it's a good idea to clean up after making changes because a year later I won't remember I left that rake lying there in the tall grass! (Until I step on it, and it whips up and says, "Howdy!"
