You mis-read. I was smiling.

I've been looking through the thousands of results from searches like
the ones you recommended, and I've been trying a lot of what I find.
Every step just leads to more and more questions that I can't find
answers to. So, I appreciate the direct help.

I'm trying to create a very simple script that will pull email
addresses from an existing database and export them with message
content to my local smtp server. To do that, I've read that I need to
set up an System DNS to the database file, which I've done according to
all the directions I can find. Now I'm trying to test the connection.

The errors I'm getting are leading me into another maze of search
results, and they all seem to be for people who have a basic
understanding of what is happening. Or the tutorials assume that
everything works just as they describe. So when things don't work, I
ask for help.
