Here are my diffs for the files as requested. I'm thinking the actual issue may lay in my submit.mc configuration. Right now I have just the base file as I've tried editing it to no success so I changed it back to normal. I "assumed" you had to edit this line. I'll also note that the "smarthost" is a Windows 2003 Server running Exchange, relaying is enable FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]')dnl and change the value to 10.0.0.2(which is the Smarthost IP), The Diffs: firewall-1# diff freebsd.mc firewall-1.xxx.com.mc 77c77 < dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `your.isp.mail.server') --- > define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.xxx.com') firewall-1# firewall-1# diff freebsd.submit.mc firewall-1.xxx.com.submit.mc firewall-1# On Sat, Aug 16, 2008 at 1:52 AM, Giorgos Keramidas <keramida@ceid.upatras.gr> wrote: > > On Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:49:39 -0600, "Tom Stuart" <freebsdemail@gmail.com> wrote: > > I have tried doing the forwarding via /etc/mail/aliases and it worked > > identically as it was with the /root/.forward.
