["Mark Jaggers" <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried that and it still did not work.  If I check email first and then
send I still get

Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed

Are you sure that "POP before SMTP relaying" is turned on?  The UI may be 
displaying the wrong state.  You can do a test to find out.

1. Connect from a dynamic IP address send an email using your server for
SMTP.

2. If you see an error, check mail, then send the email again

If the above works, it means that you have "POP before SMTP relaying" 
enabled even if the UI says that it is off.

Enabling or disabling "POP before SMTP relaying" does not make a server 
become an open relay.  Your server is an open relay if it accepts mail from 
anyone.
