Thanks Markus.  This looks very promising.  Between an example I 
received and what I've done so far hopefully I'll have it today.

The interesting issue right now is I think I've got my firewall in a 
knot.  I can't even telnet to the mail server port.  So I can't even 
test if what I've got so far is any where near good.  !#$%
