Relaying outbound email through Vertrauen isn't working? Do you have log
message related to these failures?

If you're talking about mail exchange (inbound email through Vertrauen)
services - I don't have any mail forwarding setup for totallynerd.com, so I
wouldn't expect that to work. Let me know if you need mail exchange through
Vertrauen (mail.synchro.net).

And your BBS will get SSH and HTTPS support to boot.
