I would guess that it requires some type of open-relay, unless the
thing has its own built-in SMTP server. Unless you're running your
own SMTP server and can whitelist it, you will have trouble.
Mail.msu.edu is not an open relay, so it won't help you out in this
context (unless the thing is advanced enough to support entering a
username and password each time you send something (SMTP AUTH)). You
might want to try talking directly with Ed Kryda <[log in to unmask]> about
the Express Mail service. I'm not certain if what you're doing will
qualify (it is generally used by the registrar, controller, etc for
purposes of sending out official communications to large lists of
users), but it might.
