    The rule is executed in that case as long as the message leaves
    the server.  But I did learn new (to me) information.

    My first test was to an address on the same domain and one on
    another virtual domain hosted on the same server.  In that case
    the outbound rule did not fire.

    My second test then used a 2nd recipient off-server and the rule did
    fire.  Apparently the message actually has to leave the server for the
    outbound rule to fire.

    I'm testing with ip-less domains.  I wonder if that could bear on
    the issue.

    Another possibility perhaps is that my outbound rule is test "from
    address" contains.  I see another option called "sender".  But I'm
    not sure what "sender" is compared to "from address".  Regardless
    though I couldn't make "sender" fire either.  I didn't spend
    enough time working on "sender" to figure out exactly what it is
    so I'm not certain.

    Is your domain ip-bound or ip-less?
    Is your rule firing on mail to same domain?
    How is your rule written?
