Hi!

    We're running qmail on our mail server, and have, on rare
occasions, seen the following error:

    if I send mail to bozo@someotherdomain.com:


i. This is the qmail-send program at akira.lanfear.com. 
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses. 
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. 
 
<Bozo@akira.lanfear.com>: 
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1) 


    It seems to take the USER name and try to send it locally ... Any
idea why It might do that?    The only thing I can think of is that the
actual name might be formatted as:

    "Bozo The Clown" <Bozo@someotherdomain.com>

    but I can't consistently reproduce that error.

    Anybody seen this before?  Do I have something misconfigured?

    Thanks,
    mark.
