This is a sendmail bug which we have reported to DEC.  Sendmail dumps core
whenever the environment variable NAME is set.  (Try it from your shell!)

Workaround:  Add

    unsetenv NAME

somewhere in /usr/lib/Mushrc or in your ~/.mushrc, and make sure you do so
AFTER any occurrence of

    set realname = ...

(which mush automatically exports as NAME).
