Firstly could you please configure your email client to put no more than 79 characters on each line, it makes things easier to read and to quote. You have the inbound relay configured to send all mail for the domain to the IP address of the real server. Or you could just configure the inbound relay to send all mail it receives to the real mail server. -- My current location - X marks the spot. X X X
