We've seen this before. It does need to be dealt with....

While logged in on e40-008-4, I received a "Personal" message from a
user named cfirth, whom I do not know. It contained the Athena MOTD.
I then sent him a message asking why I got it; I then got a copy of
the message I just sent, addressed to him from me, as if I were
getting copies of all his zgrams. (He said he had also gotten both
of the above messages.) I restarted my zwgc and the problem went
away, fortunately before he started any substantial zephyr
conversations.
yandros said that he had seen the problem before, and that John Carr
may have already written the patch for it. If so, it doesn't look
like it's been applied yet....
