Your Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is probably configured incorrectly. It
either believe that it is cfw.com and thus when it receives mail for that
site imeediately delivers it; or it can not find a way to deliver the
email that you send and is putting it into your mailbox locally because it
doesn't know what else to do.
Could you:
let the debian-users list know which MTA you are using (smail, sendmail,
exim, qmail, etc.)
briefly describe how you configured it.

Anand.
