Don't just add it to rcpthosts without adding it to locals, or forcing
an smtproute for the domain in question, or you'll get:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or a for that host,
it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local
(#5.4.6).
P.S., it's unnecessary to restart qmail just to reread control/locals
and control/rcpthosts. SIGHUP does this for you, without a restart.
