Description

When mail gets passed through the
org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery mailet, each message gets
split up into a separate list depending on the host name for that recipient.
This works fine when the RemoteDelivery mailet delivers the messages directly.
However, when a gateway server is specified, the split should not be done.
When a gateway server is used, ALL messages get routed through that gateway, so
splitting them up based on host doesn't accomplish anything – in fact, it
takes additional processing power to do so, when in reality, the message should
just be sent to the gateway verbatim, and then the gateway can decide how best
to deliver the messages.
