I think all I have to do is put the remote PC's user name into the 
sender_canonical but I am not for sure.  I am going to give it a go 
tomorrow and see.  My PC is relaying the email for the other PC.  I will 
let you know what I find out.  There is a whole lot of info out here on the 
net but none of it is in one spot.. haha
