RE: SMTP problems

I do not intend to receive mail.  I wanted to email some spool files to a
coworker.  I was going to transfer them to my PC and then send them, but I
wanted to do it from the 400.  Since I already had a PPP connection to the
internet, I decided to just run a SNDDST.

I will probably use this from time to time, but I will not receive mail to
my 400.

My problem also would not have been solved if I did not have the Link400.com
domain registered with internic.

I have done this in the past with clients AS/400's who are on full time
connections to the internet.  It was much simpler then.
