The 'somewhere' is probably being added by your 'rmail'.  [Do a 'strings'
on 'rmail' to see if you can find this string.]

Rmail needs to find the sender address.  It looks in the "From " line
at the top of the message.  It is expectin
either

	From address date/time/info remote from host

or

	From host!address date/time/info

Instead it found "From user@host ..." which it does not understand.  Thus
it invented the hostname of 'somewhere'.

Your real problem is with the host from which you are receiving these
messages.  It is not meeting the UUCP standards for the "From " line.
There are newer versions of 'rmail' which may help solve the problem,
although strictly speaking it is not your problem.
