are you using your dialup to do this, or some other Internet connection?

You can only relay via post.demon.co.uk if you are connected via Demon.

However, are you sure you are chatting to post.demon.co.uk at the time
and not to one of the other machines. Various configuration errors at
your end can cause you to try and relay via some machine other than the
correct one :( and this will fail.
