I found it!! Use
smtp.googlemail.com instead of
smtp.gmail.com
Found a user list full of complaints, so it wasn't ME! <whew!>
Odd. I can ping both addresses, with ping delays of 65ms for
smtp.gmail.com, and 130ms for
smtp.googlemail.com. Just for grins I'll
see if I can send this message through googlemail. And this one via my vz
account.

People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)
