Hmmm... you should not use an IP address for this - the reason is that
post.dcu is a 'smart' host and will use the best machine available.

post.dcu is an alias for a name which is linked to 4 different IP
addresses... limiting the SMTP gateway address to just one is not
really helping you... if possible change it to post.demon.co.uk
