For VMS 5.5-1, the appropriate locations are:

        MAIL$$ADD_ADDR  000049D2
        ADD_ADDR        000048FF

However, I note that after installing the patch, I observe the following.
I am using MX 3.1C and VMS 5.5-1. In the following, "host" is the short-
form name of a local machine, "host.full" is the fully-qualified name.

        To:     MX%"me@host"            works

        To:     MX%"me@host.full"       works

        To:     me@host.full            works

        To:     me@host                 appears to work but never delivers
                                        the message. Doesn't appear to be
                                        in the MX queue.

Anyone else seen this?
