Subject: Broken sender addresses
I am running some systems with try_sender_verify set on.

I have just seen a bounce of a bounce message where the enverlope sender
was

    @@f.q.domain


domain changed to protect the guilty.

I guess this is probably a duff sendmail rule converting <> into <@>
(which I have seen in some rulesets), and not then finishing the job.

There is probably nothing sensible to be done about people that have
utterly broken configs!

    Nigel.
