What were you trying to do?
Send mail to a particular PO server (jhawk@PO12.LOCAL).
What's wrong:
The client rewrites this to jhawk@PO12.MIT.EDU and hands it
off to MCS, and it gets handed to PO12, which bounces it
with "Bobo with your canned meat?".
The PO servers only accept mail to "user@poNN.LOCAL".
Final-Recipient: RFC822; jhawk@po12.MIT.EDU
Action: failed
Status: 5.1.1
Remote-MTA: DNS; po12.mit.edu
Diagnostic-Code: SMTP; 550 <jhawk@po12.MIT.EDU>... Bobo with your canned meat?

What should have happened:
of course, this used to work just fine:
It should have retained the envelope as jhawk@PO12.LOCAL; just
like under 7.6:

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Perhaps if the athena sendmail.cf were maintained via a .mc
file, it would be easier to correct these issues.
Speak roughly to your little boy,
And beat him when he sneezes:
He only does it to annoy,
Because he knows it teases.
Speak roughly to your little VAX,
And boot it when it crashes;
It knows that one cannot relax
Because the paging thrashes!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
I speak severely to my VAX,
And boot it when it crashes;
In spite of all my favorite hacks
My jobs it always thrashes!
Wow! Wow!
