I've received 4 sendsys commands from somebody, and each one has been
followed by a message from his site that his userid doesn't exist.  Is there
something I can do to stop this?

His userid is:
ycy@dec8.ncku.edu.tw
and the sendsys message has the line:
test for sendsys

I don't particularly like sending mail to Taiwan for no reason.  I am _not_
remaining calm.
