Ah, well, thats great, I had a problem at my end, which prevented me 
from sending *any* email replies, which I have now sorted, but it managed
to highlight an unrelated problem with the backup MX, what are the chances 
of that? ;)

On the subject of the unrelated problem I had, does anyone have any idea
why isdnutils, or diald, caused me to be unable to send any replies, but 
allowed me to send new mails? It seems a bit of a weird software 
interaction, but after those packages were removed everything worked.
