I would suggest being careful with this. I just tried it and the only mail it bounced was a quarantine report from MD :). Seems like the local relay identifies itself with $HELO =  FQDN and $RelayAddr =  127.0.0.1 - on my host anyway.

I'm guessing here since my Perl skills are non-existent, but could I use the following?

if ($Helo =~ /relay\.digital-animations\.com && $RelayAddr !=~ /127\.0\.0\.1/)

I'm guessing with the !=~ so please be kind :)

Cheers
Ric
