I had fun with this one. Have a look at the FAQ, right at the end of
section 5.4. Using the tcp.smtp entry was the only way I could get my
client machine to send e-mails to Qmail. Once this is setup, it should work
like a dream. Haven't tried this out on-line yet but you may have to add
the IP address of your ISP's SMTP server as well. This also bypassed the
rcpthosts file.
