I'm not convinced yet that it won't work. Bellatlatic and Verizon are actually on the same network. The ip addresses that we get through the two accounts overlap sometimes. They will let us send email from a Verizon account through a Bellatlantic connection and vise-versa. Do you have an web address for the "src" hints to help me along. If it doesn't work -we so be it. However, I still want to give it a try. Thanks for all the help so far.
