RE: Routing mail to a SMTP server

No i have nt tried the ip address of mail.btconnect.com

Bt say they just need our domain name to receive the mail on which they have
and have confirmed it is set up correctly to receive our domain email.

I am unsure of where the username & password are configured correctly - BT
did stress that a username and password are required which i have.

Thanks

Andy
