I turned relay off by changing smtprelay.tab to only contain the line
"192.168.0.0"[TAB]"255.255.0.0"[RETURN].

The log entry that I sent in my prior email was the last one in the
smtp log ... so where would I look for evidence of XMail trying to
deliver it?  I've re-checked the log, and there's nothing after that
entry which seems in any way related to the test message.  Maybe I
mis-configured XMail so that it's not even trying to send along the
email???

Thanks for you patience and help.  Obviously I'm in a learning curve
here.
