/mail/lib/rewrite and net!$smtp

All,

I was reviewing my mail setup this evening and I came across an old
kludge to forward mail to a relay host on my network in
/mail/lib/rewrite.  I used a host-specific dial string rather than
net!$smtp.  For kicks, I reverted back to the classic behavior to try
and sort out why the lookup fails and I'm hitting a brick wall
(again).

I've try adding smtp= entries to the sys, ipnet, and dom entries in
/lib/ndb/local and nothing seems to be taking.  I'm testing changes by
issuing an ndb/csquery and I'm always getting the same result:

        % ndb/csquery /net/cs 'net!$smtp!smtp'
        translating net!$smtp!smtp: cs: can't translate address: dns: name does not exist

I haven't found much other than a thread dating back to 2013 from fgb,
which appears related but doesn't seem to have a solution that works
for me.

Any ideas?
Steve
