After all sorts of initianl problems, I finally got her set up.
New internal modem dials into CCN.  Firefox works, no problem.

But -- when I tried to send a message from Thunderbird, I got the
folliwing error message:

  /*     Mail server sent an incorrect reading [or was it "greeting"?].
       Relay not permitted from this server.*/

Any idea, anyone, what this is trying to tell me?  Any idea what I
may be doing wrong?

Thanks.

PS:  Andrew, next time you sign up a new user, please write down the 
USERID too,
not only the dial-in password.  This female genius had no idea what her 
ID was.  I tried
all sorts of possibilities --

    Her first and last name
    Her first name only
    Her last name only
    First letter of first name ... dot ... last name
    First-laetter-of-first-namelast-name [no dot]
    and several more... eventually I hit the right combination.
