    The SMTP service was already listening on the external interface, so that
    wasn't a problem. I modified the /etc/mail/access file to include my local
    domain, local subnet and specific host, all to no avail. However, when I
    added the domain of my ISP, where the smart host was located, relaying
    started working fine.

    Thanks for the suggestions!
    Steve
