Cancel that. It isn't a Majordomo problem. I just took a closer look at
the error message resulting from majordomo's attempt to deliver to Robert
R. Davies@depts2@sweltdmk. It's from a brain-dead mail transport agent
running on a Banyan Vines system. It's sending errors to the original
message's "From:" address rather than to the "Sender:" or envelope sender
address like a well-behaved mail MTA should do.
