And it appears that email from *root* is not considered legitimate by some
ISPs. That was part of my SMARTHOST problem. My ISP apparrently redirects
email from *root* to /dev/null. When I emailed from a non-root account, the
email was delivered.
I commented out the SMARTHOST line and then sent email to four different mail
servers I have accounts on and only two accepted the email from *root*. One
bounced it with _access denied_ and the other made it disappear.
