If it's Windows NT, what are the SMTP_FORWARD and SMTP_FORWARD_n settings (and specifically do any of them point at fstr.wou.edu)? My hypothesis is that LISTSERV is set up to use fstr.wou.edu for at least some of its outgoing mail. (If you have an LSMTP installation I would generally expect you to only be using LSMTP to handle your outgoing mail.) In this case I'd look in the SMTPS# log files, which should be in the same directory as LISTSERV's main log files; these will hold any errors generated by the SMTP workers as they try to hand mail off to the mail server or servers. If there aren't any SMTPS# files you probably don't have any SMTP workers defined and should just look in the LISTSERV log file proper. This is all somewhat speculative since I don't know what your exact setup is, but I hope it's enough to get you started.
