Re[2]: [cobalt-users] Re: Terrible mail failure problem

[Jason Gottschalk <Jason@xxxxxxx>]

Hello baltimoremd,

Well I found the problem over the weekend.

In the relay list, I had www.thegagestore.com (like all the others) I
had to add thegagestore.com to make it work.  That's funny, because it
has worked for months with only the www.thegagestore.com entry.

Could it have been one of the cobalt updates that changed this
behavior?
