Re: [MAGNet] unable to send outside berkeley.edu domain

Oh, well. I guess just another mystery...

Aron: yes, berkeley.edu domain addresses worked OK. I checked my
settings against the kb info and found that I had Required alt port
instead of Required START TLS. But when I changed it, still didn't work.

I restarted and all works now.

Thanks for your help,
Michael
