OK tried that and yes I still get the same reply.
I have only been sending to addresses that I know are
working, and yet still get the same reply.
I've even emailed my ISP to see if they have any ideas. I
also sent email to the mydomain.info (the domain that is
being redirected to my IP) and that is redierected to one
of our pop boxes.
regards
