Hi everyone...

For some strange reason (ie a bug most likely) some of the sendmail systems
on campus generate rcpt to addresses of the form

    <<user@???>>


Our sendmail relay and even our pp relays do not seem to mind this, but
exim's response is...

    501 <<user@???>>: local part missing in route address


I don't know whether <<blah>> is valid RFC addressing but is there any
workaround, apart from me tracking down all the machines that are doing it
and correcting them.

Martyn
