Well, you got me here. Seems I was born for non-HTML lists :) However,
for regular mail I don't like scrolling like hell to read the
important stuff. Just forgot to change it. Apologies!

OK, thanks again. I have quite a long list about the sender and
recipient restrictions, I will add that too.

P.S. Since your reply-to is your own address, I have tried to mail to
it by mistake. I hope I have done noting in the past to get the
following:

450 <dragonalimex.biz>: Sender address rejected: Nothing good ever
comes from this TLD sender.pcre (in reply to RCPT TO command))
njonesmegan.vbhcs.org

Best regards,
