iptables question

It looks like my rather eloquent reply to Thomas' observations didn't
make it to the list, so I'll be plain, since I didn't save what I wrote,
and don't feel like rewriting all of it again.

In a nutshell, I've now got:

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -o eth0 --dport 25 -j DNAT
- --to-destination aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

When I run this, I simply get:

iptables: Invalid argument

which is one of the most uninformative error messages I've seen.

BTW, in case anyone is wondering, aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is being replaced
with a valid IP address in my script, so that's not the problem.

If anyone has any other suggestions, I would be glad to hear
them. Also, thanks to those who helped so far.

Greg
