It may be because you are sending the email from a non valid sender for that
mail server.

You say that your value for gSMTPSender is valid, but is it the same as
'del.murray@credithawk.net'?

The credithawk.net account may not be able to send email through
coxmail.com.  I've seen this before - and you don't get a bounce back.  They
just disappear.  It's a server mechanisim put into place so spammers can't
use their mail server.
