Len,  I'll try to be clearer.

The mailing app is CF and it sends to imail for processing.  We relay 
for local users only.  If someone sends a postcard and either the TO 
field OR the FROM field is not a local user then imail won't relay it.

It is most likely that someone who is not a "local user" on our 
system will send to another person who also is not a "local user".

"So how do I get around this?" was the basic question.
