Dave, would you be willing to share it with the list? I have been 
looking for such a solution also for quite a time. The only point where 
I disagree with you is, that I don't think this is a very rare setup.
Just think of a company where every person should be able to communicate 
with every other person locally but only a few official e-mail addresses 
(like office at example.com or sales at example.com) should be used for 
communication with the outside world.

Thanks a lot in advance,

jutta
