err.. aahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
I have local-only domains that _are_ in locals or virtualdomains, but not in
rcpthosts. And I don't want 'm to either. The suggestion Russ posted is what I'm
looking for (no rcpthosts, but smtpd accepting mail for all domains in locals,
virtualdomains and mxhosts, and a way to list domains _not_ to accept mail for, even
though they are in one of the first two files).
