This is how I was using the configure file, so at this point the address
_must_ be a local domain.

Next question, is that even tho I have used the "fail" as above
(and it WORKS .. thanks!)
the log files (both main & reject) still show that the message was
rejected as "Unrouteable address", where they should more properly reflect
"Unknown local part" as in the fail message.

Any way around this Philip?

I repectfully request that the log files be able to log the fail message.

Or, alternately, that the config file has a router option which can change
the default from unrouteable to unknown.
