Gotcha...
But what about for the bounce/alert message variables?

If I remember correctly, when Junkmail is used as a gateway, %localhost%
is the actual iMail localhost/FQDN and not the target domain's domain
name.
Maybe I should used %RECIPHOST%?

I think I could address their complaint of popmail.netrends.com
appearing in their alert messages by replacing %localhost% with
%reciphost% and leave the DNS entries the same.
