i haven't done this by hand for a while but i see a few problems

1.  -h localhost.localdomain violates the rfc.  the rfc demands that the (E)HELO line
contain a name that's resolvable in public dns.

2.  the proper arguments looks incorrect.  from smtp(8)

          upas/smtp [ -aAdfipst ] [ -b busted-mx ] ... [ -g gateway ]
               [ -h host ] [ -u user ] [ .domain ] destaddr sender
               rcpt-list

that would give
.domain		= net!smtp.spray.se (!)
destaddr		= plan9.meo@gmail
sender		= xxx@spray.se

i'm pretty sure that the .domain argument is not as intended, from the man page:

          Finally if .domain is given, it is appended to the end of
          any unqualified system names in the envelope or header.
