A quick test shows that 'listen on socket' does the trick for me.
Could you show how you actually submit the mail to smtpd? Do you use the
sendmail command, or are you using something else?

Thank you, Martjin, that was all I really needed.

It turns out I have a fundamental conceptual error that I will go back and review.

I had a test file smtpd.conf that I mistakenly thought I was loading with

# smtpd -f smtpd.conf

I replaced /etc/mail/smtpd.conf with the test file and everything just works(tm) now.

As a side note, I did discover that using:

mail -d [email protected]

Prints the following at the end (but does not send the message):

Sendmail arguments: "sendmail" "-i" "-t"

But man sendmail doesn't list a -i option though does state: ...various other flags are accepted, but have no effect.

Thanks again and sorry to bother everyone.
