    550 error when emailing

    Don't know if this is new news, old news or no news. Every time I tried to
    email with my php/mysql combo I would receive a email back from the system
    administrator with about 5 of the addresses listed with a message like this:

    550 not local host <hostname>, not a gateway

    Tried all the php fixes, ISP technical support, checked for port 25 blocking
    and domain host support no dice. These were/are all good host names. Turned
    out that in typing in and/or importing addresses some (Those being rejected)
    were typed in capitol letters. As soon as they were converted to all
    lowercase the problem went away. I posted this because you have saved my a**
    so many times I can't count them. Why it worked I do not know but it worked.
