I get this error so I assume it's not sending these through the "Smarthost"
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
    unknown local-part "foxx" in domain "mosquitonet.com"

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is his username at our ISP. And since exim thinks my box
is called mosquitonet.com it looks only on my server for a username of foxx,
finds none and pukes.
