Good call, I'm a bit embarrassed I missed that.  Unfortunately it does
not help, I'm still seeing the same behaviour.

I did notice that smtpd does pick up a .forward file and tries to
forward mails outbound.  I'll need to setup smtpd to use authentication
for my mail provider to do that which seems relatively easy to do.  Will
need to figure out how to properly do secrets in config.scm files (just
use a local-file and keep that out of my git repo?) and chmod/chgrp
stuff generated by etc-service (using activation-service?).

Cheers,
Remco
