Maybe I'm missing something here. I tried to make it as clear as I
could as to the local setup. Reiterated here for clarity:
Local machine LAPTOP (satellite.local.lan) (on home network)
Connected to desktop by ethernet and IP masquerade access to
internet.
Local machine DESKTOP (reader.local.lan) (on home network)
connected by ethernet to LAPTOP. Connected by ethernet-DSL on a separate
NIC to ISP provider (networkone.net) (NOT on local network)
Main mailbox is on the COMMERCIAL provider newsguy.com (NOT on local network)
Running the qmail LOCAL-LOCAL test. That is, testing LOCAL only delivery.
`echo to: reader | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject'
This message is not delivered locally although `reader' is a luser.
Instead it is delivered to the main mailserver (NOT on local network)
newsguy.com.

How can I deliver to local mbox's without going through a REMOTE host?
Adding satellite.local.lan to /var/qmail/control/locals Does not help.
I'm using the /var/qmail/doc/TEST.deliver (LOCAL-LOCAL test).. IE to
inject mail directly to a ~/Mailbox without sending through a remote host.
