Hi Matt,
Yes I understand they are two separate issue, unfortunately this server has several issues, so I'm asking questions not in any particular order.  I'll change that so that we can be on the same page at the same time.

ok first thing first
There is mention of the internal ip address in the /etc/postfix/transport.
Is there supposed to be anything in there?

Jon
