Actually, my test message eventually showed up. I re-tested in
debugging mode, and there is no issue with the domain. The problem is
with the suffix. If a router matches a suffix, and send sends the message
to a lmtp transport, the suffix is removed. I need to be able to pass the
suffix to the lmtp transport somehow.
