OK ...

Yes, I am sending mail through czar.platinumaire.net via my comcast
account on 24.15.252.147.  czar _does_ accept mail from that address;
empirical evidence of which is that toaster virtual domains/users *all*
successfully receive messages from me ...

OK, I suppose I must take a look at this.  In the meanwhile, I have
pushed back on the Groupwise admin.  If they want this to work, they
will have to participate in the process ;>

Thank you, for your attention to this matter.

Any idea why GTUBE tests bounce as expected from the virtual domains;
yet, do NOT bounce from this special domain?

What do you think?
