E-mail address rewrites

[Gottschalk, David]

Interesting.

I suspected that it could be a sendmail issue, because it is known to add domains to in complete addresses.

Anyone have any ideas in this arena?

One thing I can tell you is that it isn't a MailScanner problem.
MailScanner doesn't even know what Cc fields are :-)
Let alone does it ever go anywhere near them.
