When I send external Email to 'test' (the alias above) then 'resend' sends
the mail on. This is done by sending the email through to exim. This
exim _should_ be sent locally (and indeed the Received header says recieved
by local) and this should enable the 'condition' to be triggered in the
director I included previously. However this director/condition doesn't
appear to be being tickled at all. :-(
