I think I have discovered a workaround for the intermittent problem that I mentioned last week. The problem was that I would occasionally get a message "sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)" which would mysteriously go away later.
I now know what makes it go away. I have several mail accounts, all of which use the same SMTP server to send, because Compuserve's server won't allow relay, so I can't use it unless I connect with Compuserve as ISP. So I use one that does allow me to send Compuserve mail from anywhere - I also use that server to get pop3 mail for a business client. However, if I try to send mail from Compuserve *before* I check for POP3 mail on the non-Compuserve server then I get the message. Simply checking for incoming pop3 mail then resending the message clears the error. This may not make sense to anyone, but I offer it here in case it helps someone else get around the problem! Someone may even say "Aha, I know why that is!!" -- Best wishes Christopher mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.60h on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60h FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
