No protocol... just a nice thing to do when the problem is solved :-)
Glad you got it working! Note: for newsgroups that I expect to see some
crossposting to related newsgroups (not spammers) & I want to be alerted
that I'll: 1) either need to remove the crossposts when responding, or
2) ignore the post because it's been crossposted, I set the filter to
mark it as read, flag it, and mark it as 'work'; that way the post
header appears in orange with a flag & I immediately know that it
includes crosspost headers.

Now tell me why my old mail program is working with identical settings?
Never mind, I just changed the Port to 0, and removed the
authentication on the new program, and it sent that one message.  :)

I'm guessing Charter switched those settings in the old program  [in one
place] and it was OK as long as I continued to use *that* program.  I'm
saying this, because I remember it used to be 25, and I don't remember
changing it.  Could they have done that?  I forgot to say I'm on a
laptop.  I don't know what my desktop has, it's been so long since I
used it.

Thanks to everyone who has been patiently helping me!

Yes, I didn't know there was a protocol for that.  Thanks!

Also the Newsgroup [cross posting] message filter IS working, that you 
helped me with.

Thanks again!

So I reckon that we can mark this "[Resolved]" so that others don't
continue to offer additional suggestions?
