We are able to get mail to the client now, we had to actually send to the
smtp address i.e. user@xxxxxxxxx***.il.us, instead of user@pha.***.il.us. We
host the domain pha.***.il.us (*** hiding actual address) is this my only
option since our raq4 is the hosting server and my mail is on the same
server??
