It's the ctladdr formatting of the host I'm using to send out my e-mail. 
luxsci.com claims that the ctladdr of pds-srv02.photodetection.com is 
being rejected by their mail server. You can't send e-mail to 
pds-srv02.photodetection.com. I'm trying to override that definition 
with just photodetection.com. The odd thing is that their server 
"Accepted the mail for delivery", but it silently dump it... If your not 
having trouble with comcast, then maybe I'll setup my host in my 
basement to relay through comcast, and then have the server from work 
relay to my server in my basement... uggg...
