The problem is that the To: address does not have an "@dom.ain" part.
For reasons I was not able to pin down, both the To: and the From:
address need to be either fully domain'ed or non-domain'ed ("fritz")
but having mixtures produces this problem.

/usr/ucb/Mail very badly needs an overhaul; the AT&T folks basically
have already done it, and called the result mailx.  It is interesting to
note that Sun's /usr/ucb/Mail is actually mailx.

The way I fixed things was to have my sendmail always put a domain,
even on mail from users on the same machine to each other.  Mail was
just too hard to fix. Sigh.
