Thanks Noel. I added the relayhost and transport entries.
If I mail to da...@[i.p.add.ress] it reaches the internal destination.
If I mail to da...@xxxx.yyyy it goes out to the internet
So looks like a DNS issue.
I copied /etc/hosts into the chroot directory /var/spool/postfix but that had no beneficial effect. Stumped... will continue with google unless or until someone else gets here first.

If postfix is trying to send to the internet directly, your relayhost setting didn't take.

If postfix can't find where to send mail for xxxx.yyyy, likely your transport_maps entry is incorrect. Note the lookup key in transport is the email domain, not necessarily the hostname.
