The connection between the MUA and the MTA isn't via a LAN, even though
it's between interfaces with RFC1918 addresses.  They're connected via a
VPN with Time Warner between them.  Courier truncated the log entry for
the 450 error so I don't know why _that_ SMTP session failed, and it
didn't send a DSN/NDR to me with the full text of the error.  So all of
this may remain a mystery.
