Notes VMS Mail Gateway Problem

We're running Notes 3.3 and using the Notes/VMS Mail gateway (a Lotus
product) to provide electronic mail connectivity between Notes and our
VAX/VMS systems.  We've noticed that, if a VAX user sends a message to
a Notes group but fails to add the Notes domain, the message is
accepted by the gateway but is never delivered.  We have only one
Notes domain, and omitting it works fine for messages addressed to
people.  Messages to groups which include the domain are also
delivered successfully.  On the Notes side, we get every indication of
a successful delivery in the logs, but nothing is ever actually
delivered.  Nor do we find anything in the places you'd expect see a
dead letter.  Lotus technical support seems to be unfamiliar with the
VMS Mail gateway and hasn't been able to provide much help.  Has
anyone else seen this problem?  Any known solutions?

PS This is a repost.  First attempt didn't seem to go anywhere.  My
apologies if you're seeing this for the second time.
