>> helo
I had to type anumber after the helo. 1111 worked.
Otherwise it complained about no domain name.
>> mail from:your-email-address
It accepted my email address here at sdf.lonestar.org or
my partner's email address at stu.wccnet.org (the incoming server)
>> rcpt:recipient-email-address
I typed rcpt:keesan at sdf.lonestar.org
"Command unrecognized: "rcpt:.....
I tried rcpt to:keesan at sdf.lonestar.org
'Relaying denied'.
Same for various other addresses.
Can you send mail via mail.wccnet.org even if your mail account is not
there? I even tried the wccnet account as the sender.

>> ===message goes here===
Assuming I got this working, can I use a precomposed file instaed of
typing the mail online?
