<p> http://www.sendmail.org/tips/relaying.html "Allowing controlled SMTP relaying in Sendmail 8.9" "As of sendmail version 8.9, forwarding of SMTP messages is not permitted by default. For example, if you are on site A.COM, you will not accept mail from B.NET destined for C.ORG without special arrangements. .... "The simplest approach is to list the domains you are willing to relay in the file /etc/mail/relay-domains. Anything listed in this file will be accepted for relaying. "For more precise tuning, several FEATUREs have been added to control relaying..."

This just drives me round the pole.
