You're right, sorry if I asked. ;) BTW, how long does XMail wait before
retrying to send the message? Also, shouldn't it inform the sender of a
temporary problem as soon as it first discover that it cannot reach the SMTP
gateway? I mean, I don't know if this behavor is required by any email
standard, but many ISPs I used do it.

Err... I looked for some explanation on the Net, but I'm still not sure
about what an ETRN is. If I got the point, it's an ESMPT command that forces
the server to initiate mail exchanging. How can I send it to XMail, I mean,
from the command line?
Thanks,
