You need to differentiate whether problem is in her mail client or at
the mail server; also you need a better diagnostic message.

She can do this by telnetting to the SMTP server from a command prompt
and observing the transaction record.   Tell your friend how to do this
and ask for a screen capture of the session, if you know how to do.  If
not, let us know and I can post to the list instructions how to do this.
