I couldn't find anythinng on the page you pointed me at. I added 
MASQUERADE_AS() to both mc files, first one, then the other,
then both.   Would up breaking even this configuration.   I think that 
the MASQUERADE_AS() functionality enables only to change 
host+domain rather that rewrite the address only with the domain name.
