I thought that mail3 was now going to be just a smtp gateway that did spam assassin/virus checking etc and then sent the mail onto the internal system? Mail3 will need a record of the domain in the rcpthosts file so that it knows to accept mail for the domain and then a record in the smtproutes file so it knows what to do with it once its been processed. The mail.domain.com machine will need the domain in both rcpthosts (or morercpthosts) and also in virtdomains, but that is handled by vpopmail for you when you add the domain.
Unless you are still running virtual domains on mail3, there is no need to use vpopmail on that system any longer as qmail is doing all the procesing.
