It could be that there's a bug in the custom domain name code that hasn't 
been caught since presumably most just let pan pickup the domain name 
from the email address.  I know I do that here.

I /may/ test it, but (as you likely noted from the recent thread, I just 
moved and haven't caught back up yet on my feeds and stuff, so I may not 
get to it.

I /can/ say, from previous experience, if you have multiple posting 
profiles, double-check that the one you're altering is the one pan is 
using to post to your testing group with.  It can simply be that pan is 
using a different posting profile than the one you intended, so the one 
you are modifying isn't the one pan's actually using for your tests.

(I recall posting how it chose the default posting profile and what to do 
to change that default, but I don't remember the details myself, so would 
again have to test that...)
