This has broken so many times that I've given up on it; I just use a
3rd-party SMTP server.  It'll work for a month, then break again.  I
only mentioned it because it might be related to the other failures.
FWIW, the problem seems to be authentication.  The mailserver is
answering, but always fails authentication.

Looks like you fixed sending mail.  Sent without error from webmail, and
received.  Thanks!
