We are running smail3 - release 18 which is currently on uunet.

Our domain, rn.com is registered with SRI - and our primary
forwarder is forwarding everything in rn.com domain to our
gateway which is nstar.rn.com.

Now we want to add additional machines to our domain.

Mail entered on nstar.rn.com for syscon.rn.com gets forwarded
correctly to syscon - but incoming mail for syscon.rn.com from 
the outside goes to nstar.rn.com - and isn't forwarded on to 
syscon.rn.com.

The paths database contains syscon.rn.com -> syscon!%s 
and this is working on mail entered from within the domain -
but anything coming in from our primary forwarder is getting
passed on to the correct machine in the rn.com domain.
