Some time passed. No clues yet as what can cause this strange
behaviour. Nobody gave the hint that leads to a solution. It just
shouldn't happen. Courier is there and listening. Only happens when
called from localhost. smtpaccess is absolutely correct. Even Sam did
not come up with something usefull (meaning no hamr here sam, but I
guess if even _you_ don't have a clue..<sigh>)

Maybe one day..
The new sylpheed luckely now too has an option of using "sendmail.."
instead of directly call the smtp server. So sending mail off the
server under X will be possible again. But it will not solve the
puzzling..
