Actually... i am not setting up RT for this domain on on this system.. this 
is my personal email and system(s). the RT is going on a work server..

Currently our email is handled by a third party server and provider. We do 
have smtp servers we use for off items such and IDs and other systems... so 
don't assume what we have set up via this email and domain is the same and 
what I am trying to set up...

All in all it looks as If i will ahve to use sendmail to mail the items out 
and fetchmail to bring them in from the pop3 server...
