	Many sites now are insisting that you use a local domain to go 
along with that local SMTP server.  Otherwise, they won't route your 
mail.  So, now you have to be told what the local domain is (or what 
at least some of the acceptable local domains are), what the SMTP 
server is (servers are), etc....

	Nice slippery slope.
