- I expect because it was received that way. MX doesn't normally muck around
- with the RFC822 To: header. Wouldn't surprise me if the Sun was doing so
- before it sent the message to your system.

- You can confirm this by turning on debugging in the SMTP server and examining
- the resulting log file the next time a message of that type is sent.
