Thanks, Jim. Yes, this is interesting. Ultimately you'll see the other domain bounce from [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is actually me. But, I haven't set mxlogic up to do anything different depending upon whether mail is sent to concordiatech.org or lcms.org. In fact, ultimately mail to both orgs goes to the same IP address.
