well, here goes
whenever anyone tries to send mail to my friend's linux box at harvard,
the mail is returned with the message that follows at the end...
his computer is hooked up to the harvard student network and is aliased to
jazz.student.harvard.edu (the original address is
mtepel.student.harvard.edu) through the harvard DNS
it is the aliasing that seems to be causing the problems
the sendmail is original; no modifications have been made to anything in
sendmail.
tia,
mike
