[ale] Evolution Error

[cfowler at outpostsentinel.com (Chris Fowler)]

#1.  I may have been using 127.0.0.1 as my relay under 9.04 and have
switched to use  our server under 9.10

#2.  Atlantic Nexus responded within 30 minutes requesting what name I
wanted in the PTR record.  Never even asked me to check my modem or to
reboot windows (I don't run winders) :)
