	Indeed. I believe we need a fair bit more
	detail in order to diagnose the problem,
	such as what kind of system & O/S, the type
	of mailer, the error message in question,
	etc.

	A lot of general advice seems to have been
	given which may cause random problems, to wit,
	addresses with "%" will break in many mail
	transfer agents, and addresses containing
	both "!" and "@" are ambiguous in their
	interpretation.
