There are two setting on CHGSMTPA that you should look at.
We have both set the same.
Forwarding mailhub server . . . FWDHUBSVR 'abcmailrelay.abc.com'
Specifies domain name of the SMTP server that this SMTP server should
forward all non-local emails. This makes this SMTP server behave like a
mailhub. If you do not want the mail forwarded, you must specify *NONE.
Mail router . . . . . . . . . . MAILROUTER 'abcmailrelay.abc.com'
Specifies that a mail router should be used when SMTP cannot find the
name and address of the recipient in the system or personal alias tables
or when SMTP is not able to resolve the address of the recipient. The
mail router specified is a server that does know the address of the
recipient. Routing is meant for when the recipient cannot be found in
the local host table, from the DNS resolution, or from a source route.
The use of routing was deprecated in RFC 2821. If you do not want mail
routing, you must specify *NONE.

Kind of like what
CHGSMTPA FWDHUBSVR('CLUSTER5.US.MESSAGELABS.COM')
does?
Possibly.
There are two problems:
1. I see multiple parameters in CHGSMTPA that appear to refer to
external servers, and I don't really understand which does what, and
2. I don't have access to even see what the customer's current CHGSMTPA
settings are, much less change them myself, so I'm kind of blind here.
