I would set up mailhost configuration but I don't know how to do that. The 
instructions seem to want me to carry out a configuration for every email 
address that may receive mail. However, I have unlimited addresses for each 
of several domains, so I can't achieve what I infer to be required.

Perhaps a key here is that the term "account" is not adequately defined. Is 
an "account" a Spamcop account, a user account on my local mail server, an 
ISP account, an email address (no matter whether that corresponds to a 
configured local user account), etc?

If an "account" is an ISP account, what do I need to do if my ISP uses a 
server farm and mail be sent to and received from a variety of servers that 
may have dynamic addresses and for which the number of hosts and IP 
addresses are hidden from me?
