According to the spec file I wouldn't expect the line
"marge.altmail.marinesoftware.ext". There should be lines starting with
a hyphen, until the next list (of addresses to which the message is not
to be delivered). See 55.1 of the current spec.txt.

How did you manage the hostname to be there? Probably some faulty
configuration, lookup, etc. Do you some lookup for the
smtp_active_hostname?

Or does Baruwa play with the spool files?
