Hi Eric, My changes to the DNS were restricted to adding the IP addresses of the my DNS servers. Before that change, James was unable to resolve 'gmail.com'.Trying to locate these changes, I realized what I may have done wrong: I have two machines, each connected through different ISP / Hosting environment. I was testing on my dev machine and it appears the ISP blocks outbound connections on port 25.When you suggested I telnet to the mx server on port 25, I tried it from my dev environment and that works, however, I was trying james on my dev environment. As for java coding to do what I need with mailets, that is the reason I am interested in them; that I can extend their functionality with some coding. Thanks, Aladin
