Most of us sure don't.  I can speak for thousands of Cobalt RaQs on the
public network.  How many can you speak for on private networks?

The generic message is replaced with a specific message by the POP
before SMTP package, but your problem is NOT a POP before SMTP problem. 
Your problem is that your Raq for some reason doesn't think the domain
is local to it.

The good news is we fix this sort of problem.
