Thanks for the info.

Actually I'm not on Verizon DSL, I'm on a Verio T1. I have a Verizon account
and use their news server.

Here is the situation:

99% of our e-mail works fine. The 1% that doesn't work always gets one of
the messages below.

I tried the Telnet test and got different responses.

    533 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts <#5.7.1>
    Connection Failed
    Relaying denied. IP name possibly forged

Our mail is setup like this:

    We have a Barracuda networks SPAM firewall with a public address of
204.245.188.9 = mail.emilyslist.org.
    The actual mail server is running Exchange 5.5 and has an address of
204.245.188.3 = hera.emilyslist.org.
    Everything sits behind a SonicWall Pro 230 firewall.

I went to www.dnsreport.com and everything passed.

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
