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
