Hi, Chuck: Wonder if your problem is related to mine? In any case here's a stab at a possibility--not necessarily a right answer. I noticed, while working on my sendmail problem, that there is a field in the sendmail configuration file (/etc/sendmail.cf on my system) to specify which addressees should be handled locally. I didn't read the docs on this but understand it to mean that you could specify usernames and perhaps a unique local domain e.g. x.y.z.com which would have to be set up, of course. PS: Just changing the field doesn't change the setting. You need to recompile the configuration with m4 and restart sendmail for it to take effect.
