 The user does not exist on the Cobalt RAQ.  I do not want the RAQ to handle
 mail for this user or any other user in the ky.net domain.  All MX records
 properly point to our mail server which is a totally separate box.  The 
problem
 is that I can not figure out why the RAQ wants to try to verify the user
 locally. >>

WHY..BECAUSE that is how they were ment to use....use a cobalt raq for 
hosting and email on the same box...it works like a charm...start doing mor 
complicated set-ups and your in satans land... (or is it STAN ?...)We use the 
cobalts for NON complicated hosting  combined with email on the same box.     
IF we want to have the email on another box etc we just use our HP's      
just dont use the cobalts for something they were nto built to do....and if 
it does not work...... dont bitch.....the same as your ford Taurus, it won't 
be able to run with they guys next door Porsche  or the girls next door van 
which hold 15 rug rats.....
