I receive a local mail when I do a 'mail test' on a backend svr1 with this[0] configuration. However when I just add only one configuration change 'lmtp_proxy = yes' I am getting these errors[1]. I would expect this email to still be delivered locally, should this be working or do I misunderstand the lmtp proxy functionality?
