Sent same message via yahoo pop account to same sendmail machine and it got filtered but not discarded. I replicated this several times. The message is always filtered and discarded if I send via telnet CL either locally or remotely. I noticed that in the first "CL" instance the the msgid included my gateway while in the second "POP" instance" it included the initial mail gateway. But, in either case it's forwarding this message to an external user aliased from a local user.

................. Sendmail is setup to only forward for "ourdomain" (not actual name) but that doesn't seem to be the issue here as that's all that's being requested. mimedefang-filter is setup to not filter messages from local private subnet machines, but, that doesn't seem to be the issue either, as in neither case is their the ...no further action necessary... in the log entries. Any ideas?
