I suspect your alpine is set to send email through your
ISP's outgoing mail handler. If it is like Verizon's,
the outgoing mail handler will not accept transmissions
from outside its own network. I.e. the handler will
start subscriber's mail on its way, but will not serve
as an intermediate relay for non-subscribers mail.
