Re: 500 Error mail not terminated with '.'???????/

Yeah, I noticed that and haven't seen that message.  But a 550 is pretty
much a generic termination.

Is it just that one address?

What if you set up a hotmail account and try to email it from there?

Can you telnet the box?

Could they have blacklisted your domain by mistake?
