    O.K. now this is working.

    first the lookuphost needed someway to send stuff if it was going to validate local parts of
    non-local domains. So now the router is:


    lookuphost:
        driver = lookuphost
        transport = remote_smtp
        verify_only


    Also, I was unable to verify local parts because my firewall would not let me.


    Duh.


    Sorry to pollute your mail with these messages.

    
I decided to move from sendmail to exim because I am going to have a more interesting mail
configuration soon. When I finally got sendmail working a year ago, I never understood why it
worked or what it was doing.

Exim is nice. It makes sense. I am confident that I can get it to do whatever I need it to.

    Not to say that I will not post again.


    Thanks,
            ~Michael
