Okay then.  This last info you sent to me only (I'm sending it to the list
with this posting - see below) is information that gives us a common
starting point and indicates some issue/conflict with setup that should be
addressed.

I'm not familiar with this problem - but maybe someone on the list is.  I
suggest you subscribe to the list (if you haven't) so you get all your
replies - it seems that the return address for your e-mail account doesn't
include your domain name, and thus messages sent to you by choosing the
reply-to option don't get the messages back to you.  I happened to copy &
paste your address from your signature, which is why my message got
through...
