There are no messages in my queue.  They "sent" when I put mail in the spot for my SMTP host name.  Of course they didn't actually send because I got that error, but  they're no longer in the queue, nothing is.  But I still get the same error whenever I try to send anything.  It will happen when I try to send this reply to you, so I'm going to copy and paste it into a mail.com message to you, too.

There was nothing in the window for SMTP host.  There still isn't.  When I type something in there, it stays for this session only.  If I close pegasus and come back, it's gone.  Why?

So that explains this one time.  It's been resetting me every time I close and restart, for about two weeks now.  Until this time, it's only been annoying, but if  it's resetting SMTP host, or something in a queue somewhere that says <@>, that's a bigger problem.
