Please don't take this the wrong way, Mr. Ingvaldson, but you seem 
confused. We are NOT trying to tie our box into the customer's mail 
system, or theirs into ours. We're trying to get theirs to work at all.

ON OUR BOX, the SMTP and MSF jobs work fine. And we DON'T have a Host 
Table entry that exactly matches what the formula below produces. (The 
ones that are close all point to the Loopback IP address.)

It's on THE CUSTOMER'S BOX that SMTP crashes on takeoff without a 
joblog, and THEY DO have a Host Table entry that EXACTLY matches what 
the formula below produces, and it points to an IP address that appears 
to be is active on that box.
