Sendmail not verifying User

Hello All
We are running:
Solaris 9
Sendmail 8.12.11
MailScanner 4.29.7
SpamAssassin I forget
It seems as though when sendmail is in queueonly mode it does not check to
see if the recipient is a valid user. It appears to read the virtusertable
file as well as the access database and will act on those but not the
password file.
We accept mail from the outside world on two different machines and
forward them off all shiney and sparkly to a 3rd machine for pickup by our
members using the mailertable feature on the queue runner.
We do not get a user unknown error until the queue runner tries to deliver
to the internal machine. If the machine is not in queueonly mode then
unknown recipients are rejected immediatley.
This is not a new problem, it has been happening since the get go, I just
have a lil spare time to try and get this solved.
Any thoughts or ideas would be most appreciated.
Thx
Rick Noble
