Mine went out this morning... Thanks for sending the note around, Trevor.<br><br>Changing the smarthost to <a href="http://shawmail.wp.shawcable.net">shawmail.wp.shawcable.net</a> worked just fine. They're not blocking inbound mail, and I'm not picky about how my mail gets out, given I forward it all to gmail these days anyway.

In case anyone's curious, the Shaw SOHO package starts at $66:<br><a href="http://www.shaw.ca/en-ca/ProductsServices/Internet/BusinessInternet/SOHOPackage.htm">http://www.shaw.ca/en-ca/ProductsServices/Internet/BusinessInternet/SOHOPackage.htm
