RemoteDelivery mailet should not split messages based on host when using a gateway

           Summary: RemoteDelivery mailet should not split messages based on
                    host when using a gateway
           Product: James
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Mailet API
        AssignedTo: james-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bwalker@studentadvantage.com


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.
