Wait, I wasn't complete in my explanation, I was trying to simplify it, but
I missed a key component
RCPT really returns
[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]
result=relay
smokefree.org is on mercury.he.net, so it appears that the error is that
it's trying to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] through he.
So, what to do? If IMS is relaying more than one address, doesn't it split
them up into different messages?
Thx,
Tac
