Hello all,
I thought some might be interested in the answer to this problem I
posted. My ISP made adjustments to help block spam, one of which was
not to permit people to send from any mail server other than their
own. So I had to change the smtp.mail.yahoo.com to mail.earthlink.net
and the problem is completely solved. Too bad it took them nearly a
week to get back to me about it... *grumble*
