i use a mail aliasing service elsewhere on the internet.
so if i have a name like abc@name1.name2.net, i can use
abc@new.net.

however, when i specify my 2.2.5 sendmail as the SMTP
server, mail sent to abc@new.net is rejected by the
aliasing service.  if i specify my ISP's SMTP server,
everything works fine. ???

my ISP's server seems to run 8.8.0 w/ESMTP
while my 2.2.5  seems to run 8.8.8 w/SMTP.

why is 2.2.5 emails rejected ???
