Can't send email to myself from POP3 TBird. ... Re: Perm Error.

Cannot send email back to me, e.g. from my TBird POP3 laptop to my TBird POP3 desktop, vice versa or even back to the same platform (... and no, IMAP will not work for me). I get a Permanent Error result with a Final-recipient: rfc822, Diagnostic Code: smtp;. I have iPhone Apple Mail (IMAP) and another windows laptop (also IMAP) that work fine. I can send email to myself and it is available on all devices. However, if I send the same email from one of the TBird POP3 devices (both Windows), it results in the Permanent Error. The problem seems to be isolated to just TBird running in POP3 when sending back to the originating email address. Any ideas?

Hey Matt, thank you for getting back so quickly. Here is the top of the response ... (But I'll also attach a screen shot of it which may be easier to look at.)
