[cobalt-users] Cobalt RAQ4 Mail problem



We have recently added a RAQ4 to our network and moved some of our
websites over to it.  The Cobalt is also handling email for ONE domain
with 5 user.  We have a dedicated mail server that handles email for all
other users.

The problem is that for some reason the Cobalt does not want to allow
our mail server to handle the email.  For example, http://www.ky.net is
hosted on the Cobalt RAQ server, but my email newt@xxxxxx mailbox is on
our mail server.  Mail comes and goes just fine, with one exception.  If
an email message originates on the Cobalt server (ie being created by a
CGI script) and is addressed to newt@xxxxxx then the Cobalt will not
send it to the mail server.  Apparently the Cobalt thinks that since it
hosts http://www.ky.net then it should also needs to have a local
newt@xxxxxx mailbox too.  Since it does not have one, the Cobalt gives
an error saying that the user does not exist.

Any suggestions?  It seems like this should be really simple, but I can
not find where anything is telling sendmail to verify the user account
locally for the hosted domains.

Thanks for any help you can give.
