[pmmail-list] PM Mail Version 2.10.1999 Having Problem sending to Microsoft Exchange Receipent.

[Don Buska]

Thanks Gary.  My IT guys are already well aware I'm a non-MS rebel here at the 
company.  Heck I was one of two who ran OS/2 2.1 back when they were messing with 
WIN3.1 and DOS.  I just sent them another email this morning which provides some more 
sample, including one to a shipping broker right here in Chicago that got bounced.  As 
well as a couple of new ones getting bounced from our corporate in Japan.

I've tried with Mozilla too and it does the same thing.

Regards,

Don
