While trying to find a problem with an X.400 gateway, I found the following
problem:
The following BSMTP file is passed by MAILER to the SMTP machine:
HELO vtvm1.cc.vt.edu
MAIL FROM:<VALDIS@vtvm1.cc.vt.edu>
RCPT TO:</prmd=mdc-lb2/o=msgwl/ddt=msmail/ddv=cohen#m#_les/@mdclb.mdc.com>

Message-Id: <920228.171255.EST.VALDIS@vtvm1.cc.vt.edu>
this is passed...
.
QUIT
However, the following BSMTP is silently munched by MAILER - the console
gets a '0000 recipient blocks' message and that's it. The user gets NO
message back.
HELO vtvm1.cc.vt.edu
MAIL FROM:<VALDIS@vtvm1.cc.vt.edu>
RCPT TO:</admd=dialcom/prmd=mdc-lb2/o=msgwl/ddt=msmail/ddv=cohen#m#_les/@mdclb.m

I suspect the problem is the truncated RCPT TO: line - I've already
reported a similar problem to Rich Shafer about another manifestation of
this.
But why doesn't the user get ANYTHING back?
