"pc-0004.localarea" is not configured as a local domain, therefore the
server considers it a remote domain, to be delivered via SMTP.
lots of config files and I am really confused: which file to configure
'localarea' as a local domain?
But upon looking up this domain's MX records, the server discover that the
MX records point to itself afterall.
this is my dig:
pc-0004 ~ # dig localarea mx
; <<>> DiG 9.2.5 <<>> localarea mx
;; global options: printcmd

Either fix your DNS, or configure this domain as a local domain.
MTAs are always a bit hard to me...anyway thanks for your help!
