Barry, That is definitely not the normal behavior at all. I would recommend that you open an official support ticket regarding this.
After many tests from all different directions, hours and hours, I found the culprit -- my server settings uses the standard username "barryg+infoprovider.com" for its standard SMTP mail.imydomain.com which works 110% of the time on all my mail clients. As a last resort and final statement of official braincell loss, I took a chance and changed the "+" to a "@" --> [email protected] as the username in the Admin. LO and behold, now everything works. As the saying goes ^%@& me. Thanks David, Larry, Eric, Mike -- everyone for your help -- you really helped. Never did I not loose my 68C faith LOL Thank you thank you thank you BarryG
