Are you sure that your ISP isn't doing exactly this on their gateway in

What ISP? The server is co-located and nothing is blocked other than
what I block with pf.
Thanks for that link - very useful. I've tried a couple of things in
main.cf..
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
and
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit
but still no luck.
FWIW when the mail fails I also get the following line in the browser
window...
Mailer Error: Language string failed to load:
