Greg,

It was sending email from the RH9 the FC3 machine that I wanted to try in the 
first place. Nothing happened. So installed firestarter on the fc3 machine 
because it monitors firewall hits in convenient fashion. Nothing.

Both machines web browse etc. OK, so tomorrow I might try to send a message 
from the FC3 to the RH9 machine.
