Thanks. Sorry for such a delay in responding, but I was out in the
boonies for awhile.

I am using OpenSMTPD.
The problems for this were indeed as you suggested and with the passwd
files.

This is all working now, but I have some other problems which I will
work on too.

I will continue to work on those and ask another thread if I cannot get
that worked out.

Thanks again.
