Thanks.
Yes I was routing everything to heuy, but in fact the solution is
easier. There is no reason to route everyting to heuy. I have added a
router for our domain to go to heuy and all other domains which should
only be DSNs to go direct. This is even better because I dont want DSNs
to go through heuy.
MANY MANY MANY Thanks.
