Thanks Andy.  

But that doesn't solve the problem because there's no way to predict in
advance all of the possible local addresses that any user might send to.

OK, I'll take a stab at it.

 

Do you have an alias file entry for n6emf? Like so:

 

 n6emf   n6emf at n6emf.ampr.org

 

The alias file will expand n6emf to n6emf at n6emf.ampr.org in this case. I
agree that this is almost a bug, JNOS should not be forwarding mail to a
gateway without a FQDN

in the address.

 

Good luck,
