Its what LOCALHOST resolves to. So it should be in there. Also the line: 127.0.0.1 localhost should be in your hosts file. Check it, NT doesn't always put it in there. Haven't looked at the code today, but forwarding is coming from localhost, not the remote IP, so _should_ work if localhost is allowed to relay mail.
