Before all these really basic ideas and concepts are mentioned, the most
basic of all concept needs to be discussed, that is, chances are, Claude,
your ISP has shut off SMTP outbound so you cannot send email unless it is
from their SMTP server. Most ISPs do this now unless you have a commercial
account and static IP. First telnet (using cmd if in XP) into any SMTP
server on port 25, to see if you can even connect to any SMTP server from
your machine. If not, don't even bother downloading a MTA.
