Hi Tom,

I can't send you mail through my web host, nor pine on my local box
because of the extremely paranoid configuration on your mail server. 
Your bounce message has a link to spamcop.net.  Following that link
takes me to http://spamcop.net/w3m?action=checkblock&ip=216.116.124.23
which says:
216.116.124.23 not listed in bl.spamcop.net.
216.116.124.23 is not and should not be listed.

Does your black list update?  I hope so as I'm sure PLUG doesn't want to
see all of our offlist conversations.  Time to unlock the technical
janitor's closet . . .

Regards,

George

What does that tell you if your project is ahead of schedule and under
