Hi Kevin,

send-mail-function's value is sendmail-send-it

do you mean addresses should be

To: john.doe1@posiedon.com,
    john.doe2@posiedon.com,
    john.doe3@posiedon.com

rather than

To: john.doe1@posiedon.com,
john.doe2@posiedon.com,
john.doe3@posiedon.com

this could be the problem then -- I certainly havn't been putting any 
whitespace in
