Another Kind of OS X Mail Problem

[Chuck Cox]

Hi Charles,

Thanks for the pointer.  I checked it out and below is the relevant
statement:
"Addresses a situation in which certain Internet service providers (ISPs)
may not accept outgoing email (SMTP) from computers using NAT and a ".local"
hostname (which may be assigned by Rendezvous)."

I've asked Mac Tech Support if this is an issue for me since my version of
OS X is 10.2.3.  He said no, however, I have no other lead.  Mac
reassurances aside, I would like some proof.  Now looking for ways to
confirm or reject this possibility.

Chuck

This could be rendezvous interacting poorly with your ISP's SMTP
service. Check out this Apple KB article:
