Sorry I cannot easily reply to you by mail, Bill, but with a site named
"Grumpy" your mail is doomed to go to "grumpy" whenever it goes through
a gateway which converts names to lowercase. Though strictly speaking there
is no problem with your site name, in practice it will not work.

I suggest you try another name...

Paul.
