Thank you for your reply;
One of my machines (the one I use all the time and use to send and 
receive
e-mai)  does have an ISP assigned name. But the others are FQDN's that
I have registered. One even has .net as the top level domain and that is
one I am planning on using for the mail server.
Thanks again
