This is the normal QSL for APRS text messages
A typical message would be:
PA0R This is my message
When WB5CON QSL's the message the server will put the message on APRS backnone
on
the internet.
When I am linked to PI4TUE that server will output the message and I will
receive it.
To receive these pskmail messages you must be linked to a server (otherwise ALL
servers
world-wide would TX the message, and that is not what we want...)

This is the regular QSL for email messages. WB5CON has receveided the email
o.k.,
whether the nail has been sent is a matter of
a) the right configuration of the SMTP server WB5CON is using
b) whether verizon,net accepts the email for you.
Fred can see in the server screen if the SMTP server was sent...

Yes, exactly. See above.

Not always, or never? Once is enough to see if the smtp server config is o.k.
Hope this helps, 73,
