But as Bo says, it is a security setup issue.  Routing mail you originate
is enabled by default, but routing mail others originate is disabled by
default.

When you are 950 and route mail from 950 to somewhere else, there are only
two parties involved (and you are one of them), so all you need is the
right statements in ROUTE.CFG to give your 950 setup permission to do this.

When you are 951 and route mail from 950 to somewhere else, there are three
parties involved (and you are neither the source nor the destination), so
your 951 setup also needs the extra ForwardTo/ForwardFrom statements to let
951 know that it is OK to middleman mail between 950 and somewhere else.
