I misread (some time ago) the wiki doc mentioning virtual hosts as
virtual domains. I've just now set 'me' back to what I originally had,
the same as

Maybe wasn't complient, but seemed to work ok. (?)
I ran into an issue with this a while back. One of my clients was trying
to send emails to a certain domain that had tightened the screws down on
their "spam fighting techniques" as far as I think they can go.
According to RFC, your helo message must return either the FQDN, or the
ip address in [192.192.192.192] format (the brackets HAD to be there),
which isn't the way Linux does it normally. I had to create the control
file 'helohost' and put my FQDN in here (I opted to not use the IP
address in bracket method). Another one to keep an eye on is your
smtpgreeting file. This is what your machine answers as when connections
are made and some tight-ended machines will drop the connection if your
machine does not answer with a FQDN.
Back on the other subject of local-to-local emails not being scanned by
SA..... There's normally no reason to spend resources scanning emails
sent from local domains for spam. You may need to include the command
QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/simscan" to your smtp file, or I thought I
saw someone post on here about adding another smtp daemon to listen to a
different port for this so as to not make Squirrelmail mad. The only
other way I can think of forcing this would be by removing the
RELAYCLIENT option for the 127 address but I think that's where
Squirrelmail gets mad.
