i sent two test messages to an obscure/inactive
unmoderated newsgroup and both messages arrived
in a timely manner ... the smtp progress window
showed each packet being sent one at a time ...

this type of test shows that qsl does work with
omnimix using tor w/ dynamic dns (i'm using tor
browser on port 9150) . . . one more reason for
qsl users to include omnimix in their selection
(onion relays should work too, need for testing)

yes, onion relays work by including proxy server
set to 127.0.0.1 socks 4a tor enabled, smtp port
9150, authentication omnimix/omnimix; all "host"
relays, binski, archiade, and tested onions work
fine ... it's conclusive, qsl works with omnimix
every qsl message i've sent arrived normally e.g.

Fcc: outbox

having tested qsl, i found that it runs 100% reliably in windows 11
24h2 with omnimix using tor, and qsl is still very popular with its
users... so now everyone using qsl will want to use it with omnimix
knowing that all "host" relays, including the onions, work reliably
as long as stats, pingers, relays, gateways, etc., are kept current

by using qsl with omnimix/tor (i prefer tor browser but omnimix tor
also works swimmingly and adds user-defined circuit length up to 9)
i found qsl to be user-friendly...templates, mailbox, it's a keeper
but for daily use, i'll probably keep using my favorite newsreaders
