Also, as per Steve Deemer, and per RFC2822 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2822.txt) Section 3.6. (Field definitions), the "from:" header field is required (in addition to the rcpt from: smtp command), which I would speculate is the issue with his failures. Thanks Hi :)

To work on roadrunner.com smtp server, all I had to add was From: and To: header in message. I got frustrated trying to get netcat to work. "cat file | nc -i1 smtp-server.com 25" Nice job!

I got frustrated trying to get netcat to work.
