I see your point. I was considering it only from my current situation. I
did find out what's causing this particular problem, though - a client w/
a groupwise server turns on vacation autoreplies and they are sent from
the address mailer-daemon@???. That address is 1) invalid
and 2) in no way within their rights to use. *sigh*

Thanks for explaining the situation to me.
