Sendmail/DECNET problem

[Bruce Barnett]

We have been getting errors in the syslog file:
	sendmail: Unparseable user root wants to be <joe at somevax>

and the mail is forwarded on to the destination with the return address of
	root at gateway

"somevax" is a VMS machine. We are using Ultrix 3.0 with the mail11
from Ultrix 2.2 ( I believe). We couldn't use the mail11 that came with
Ultrix 3.0 because the return address was always wrong, or something like
that.


Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it? Do we just hope
Ultrix 3.1 will solve the problem?
