    Make sure you compiled the server itself with #def outbound_network
    uncommented (different from the default) in config.h, although this is
    prolly set because I think not defining it returns E_PERM.  Also be sure
    that your maildrop is valid and working... see if you can
    ;open_network_connection("localhost", $network.port), and check the log for
    the attempt to connect, as well.
