Sorry, I wasn't paying enough attention. There is no variable with your
own IP address. I kind of assumed you would know it. :-) If you have
multiple interfaces, you can select which one is used by setting the
"interface" option in the SMTP transport, but the value doesn't get into
a variable. However, since you have set it, again you must know it.

What have I missed this time?
