I have a domain (rezidew.net) with a dedicated 24/hr connection. I have 
a friend with a machine not on my domain (friend.someother.net). My 
question is this: Since his machine may be down for days at a time, how
do I queue mail for him when he's offline?

he has edited his MX record

I have tried adding him to my /var/qmail/controls/rcpthosts
but I keep getting an error in the maillog saying;

[!error]
failure:
Sorry._Although_I'm_listed_as_a_best-preference_MX_or_A_for_that_host,/it_
isn't_in_my_control/locals_file,_so_I_don't_treat_it_as_local._(#5.4.6)/
[/!error]

I don't want the mail delivered locally so what do I do?

host3.reizdew.net

thanks in advance
