  Yes; the ISP hasn't gotten the inverses in yet.

  Actually...when they do, it still won't be quite right.  The actual
mail.neurotica.com machine is behind a nat/firewall that's doing
overloading and port redirection.  The actual outgoing connections
will be coming from neurotica.com.  This wouldn't be my first choice,
but I already can't afford the IP addresses that I have...don't want
to burn any more if it's not strictly necessary.

  I will have to give this some thought.

  Yes, please do.
