	I tried following that by using smtp.comcast.net:587 ; it got me 
the omta message again. This time, I tried typing "Beartooth" in 
response, and it asked my my password. I typed that, but made a typo -- 
and got an authentication error.

	I'll try it again, and if no joy, try it yet again with /
submit:587 -- stay tuned.
