something is "wrong" in your route.fd file, then... the local
flag indicates that the mail was created locally... without the local flag,
the mail is routed as it doesn't originate locally... what you seem to be
seeing is that routed mail passing thru your system works but local mail
isn't being sent... what you need to do is to look and see what your
settings are for the event that's running at the time...

basically, you have to have that destination system qualified in the running event...

1. what is the address of the destination system?

2. post your route.fd file so we can take a look for any typos or other problems...

alternatively, you can visit the fd support forum (freshly started ;) ) on
my web site... the same info is needed, though ;)

you /don't/ want that flag turned off...
