Re: test whether I can send mail to the board from my Yahoo account

[Noelle <noelle>]

Robert thinks that the problem is that our ISP's SMTP server does 
not like unumhumbrewing.com's MX DNS record's hostname, namely, it 
doesn't like the leading _ (underscore) in the hostname.  Which he 
thinks is very odd because many other SMTP servers do not seem to 
mind.

Anyway, the workaround of using unumhumbrewing.com's SMTP server 
directly via port 25 seems to be working for now.  (Normally, our 
ISP blocks outbound port 25, but Robert opted to allow it.)
