Len, I'll try to be clearer.
The mailing app is CF and it sends to imail for processing. We relay
for local users only. If someone sends a postcard and either the TO
field OR the FROM field is not a local user then imail won't relay it.
It is most likely that someone who is not a "local user" on our
system will send to another person who also is not a "local user".
"So how do I get around this?" was the basic question.
