Unfortunately I'm not seeing this work in practice. The domain is
NOT in sendmail.cw, that was the first thing I did after changing
the DNS, but any mail sent through the Raq for the domain in
question still bounces with the 'user unknown' error in the logs,
rather than just sending it to the correct server for delivery. I
can send email to the correct server (and username) without a
problem from other mail servers I have tried.

So I'm still stumped....
