OK - taking your suggestions (and in zentara's case - code). I have gotten this:
- zentara's original code: Get a "Bad File Descriptor" error
- neilh's suggestion to change to a different mail account off of gmail (used a mail.domain.com account) in zentara's original code: Get a "Bad File Descriptor" error
- As per PodMaster's suggestion - activate the debug option in zentara's original code - still using the alternate email address: Get a "Bad File Descriptor" error
Any other ideas, suggestions or direction to take?
life is a game... so have fun.
