If you'd tried "GET" instead of "get" you might have got something else
instead of a 400 error:

  [tim@gonzales ~]$ telnet mail.poughkeepsieschools.org 80
  Trying 64.72.66.117...
  Connected to mail.poughkeepsieschools.org (64.72.66.117).
  Escape character is '^]'.
  GET /
  <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
  <html><head>
  <title>302 Found</title>
  </head><body>
  <h1>Found</h1>
  <p>The document has moved <a href="https://mail.poughkeepsieschools.org/";>here</a>.</p>
  </body></html>
  Connection closed by foreign host.

I got a 302 (okay, but...) response.  In a nutshell, that give you a
response that tells you to use the address they provide back (the one in
the HTTP headers, and they've provided the same details in the HTML, as
well), instead of the one that you tried to use.

The address that you're redirected to use worked for me.

 important to the thread.)

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
