In postfix, you need to add to the main.cf: transport_map = hash:/etc/postfix/transport_map
In your /etc/postfix/transport_map file, you should have a line that reads like so: domain.of.recipient.comp smtp:mailserver.you.wish.to.relay.through Then, as root, run "postmap hash:/etc/postfix/transport_map Lastly, as root, run "service postfix reload" to get postfix to reload the config, and make use of the new transport map. Here's the potential problem: You'll have to make sure that "mailserver.you.wish.to.relay.through" will let you relay through them. If you can not relay through them, the message will just come back with a relay denied (which can be good...the original message will wind up in your inbox, as part of the reject, and you can reforward it to a different email address). However, assuming that "mailserver.you.wish.to.relay.though" allows you to send the message, you may encounter another problem. If, as I suspect and already noted, the problem is that Lycos' server is rejecting the message due to size restrictions, then the message will simply sit in the deferred on that server, instead of yours.
