Re: [Lynx-dev] question for fichub.net users?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi Thorsten,
The same chosen neglect by the shellworld administrator feeding this lynx 
problem, also prevents me from writing you off list.
Mail efforts time out, your service, wisely, wants to confirm an email is 
really mine, hostname with a ptr and or dns matching record.
Thanks to you, and other tests, I can confirm the issue may be largely a 
shellworld lynx problem, not a lynx problem in general.  One other copy to 
which I have access does not produce this minus 9 error.
My gmail address is first name dot last name at gmail.com
If discussion remains of interest, write me there please.
Best,
Karen
