Sam,

Thanks for the very helpful response.

Does the following look right from my mail.log file?
2004/02/11 14:26:07 [27986]:   send_confirmation(): Sending 
confirmation to [email protected]
2004/02/11 14:26:07 [27986]:   __match_recipient(): No Match found. 
Using [email protected]
2004/02/11 14:26:07 [27986]:   generate_auth(): Authentication = 
1076534767-c42ebfa24183d1115a3b1f2be8e5ffca

I am wondering if the "No Match Found" could be why the email is not 
going through.

Any Ideas?
