VZ and VZW are completely separate (from an SMTP point of view)

Steve,

   You can let your contact know that Verizon Wireless does have some
employees on the list and it's been taken care of. I've forwarded
Christ w/Globalstar's issues on to appropriate parties within VZW.

   As a reiteration, VZW's network infrastructure is completely
seperate from Verizon's. (with the exception of where they are a LEC)
