Problem with mail from other system.

I've got someone trying to get on the net who is running AIX on an
RS/6000. The mail I receive from him is marked strangely in the "From:"
field. It looks something like "From: !!root" for example. It doesn't
put the systemid in the address. So, when it gets to my system,
smail 3.whatever keeps putting the mail from him in /usr/spool/smail/input
and it just sits there. My question is really two pronged. 1) How can
I correct the problem on the AIX side? and 2) How can I get smail to
accept such mail even if not correct? Thanx for any advice on this.
