Doda36,

Who is anybody@bellsouth.net?  Is this a valid e-mail address?  Clearwire.net's mail daemon is simply telling you that the bellsouth mail server connection timed out.  What are you trying to send.  Bellsouth.net e-mail will not accept e-mail with attachment greater than 10Mb unless recipient has an account that allows large data transfers.  Ran into a similar problem with Quickbooks Pro 2005.  e-Mailed Quickbooks data file to accountant for years with no problem.  After upgrade to QBPro 2005, data file jumped from 5Mb to 15mb and was rejected by Bellsouth mail server.  Since accountant did not have FTP server, had to snail-mail ZIP disk with data to accountant.  Is this what you are trying to do?

doda36,

The message indicates a problem at bellsouth.net and there is nothing you can do about it at your end.

Sorry, that is not a vailed e-mail address.  I only used that to indicate that any contact ("anybody") in my address book using bellsouth.net would not receive my e-mail - I could receive from them but could not send.  The text is usually quite short with no attachments.  Want to try again???
