Yes, sorry I didn't say in the first e-mail - Brain fart - user@xxxxxxxxxxx
does NOT work, but user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DOES work.
I went into openwebmail in the preferences, added the user account of
user@xxxxxxxxxxx, then selected that account under preferences again.
The sendmail account that I'm using to test the user's account is on a
completely different server, so that I can test it like a real "outside"
user would.
Thanks for the help!!
Thank You,
Glenn
