[imp] Horde (IMP) email problems

[Edward Burr]

(None of this has anything to do with Horde/Imp)

Have you checked /var/log/maillog for errors? That might provide more  
explanation as to what is wrong.

As for "your local server is on a network range that is being  
blocked", he is probably referring to the dynamic IP address block  
lists such as http://www.sorbs.net/faq/dul.shtml

I'm in that situation, and because of the increasing number of  
organizations using those listsd I have to have my home mail server  
relay all mail through my ISP's mail server.  I don't know about  
Hotmail, but Google recently stopped accepting mail from my ISP's  
regular server, and after a few conversations with my ISP's support  
staff, I learned that they have setup a new smtpauth server because of  
that. Once I reconfigured to relay my mail through that, I can now get  
mail to gmail addresses again.

I hope this helps some.
Edward
