Almost seemed TOO easy.  I HAD changed that to 192.168.0.1, port 25, but it 
seems the send mail service is still trying to resolve a different ISP SMTP 
server.  Oh well, I'll keep plugging away at it.  Eventually I'll either get it
figured out or say the heck with it.

 Thanks for the info.  That worked pretty well...  

I'm wondering...  Are there plans to release a Linux documentation set?  Seems 
there are "just enough" differences to make one worthwhile.  

Thanks again!
