Looks like you are right - and that's a breakthrough! I checked on the
primary mail server using simply
tcpdump host 83.143.217.179
and I noticed connections to port 10024.
I should have used tcpdump earlier in this process - but better late
than never.
Now I just have to fix the sendmail ("rx" instance) config so that it
really sends the email to localhost (where amavis is listening), instead
of trying to send directly to the final destination. So far no luck. A
similar setup works ok on the primary mail server, so I don't know why
this one does not work.
