rash of bogus postmaster addresses <@@domain.name>

[Nicholas_Briggs.PARC@xerox.com]

Has anyone else noticed a sudden rash of bogus SMTP FROM addresses for error
messages...?

I'm seeing a lot of mail claiming to be
	MAIL FROM:<@@some.domain.name>

This is NOT a well formed (per RFC821) name -- by the look of the messages,
they should be
	MAIL FROM:<>

Since they aren't, if there is a delivery error, we attempt to return them --
and, you guessed it, we end up in a loop generating a larger (or multiple)
message each time.

Sigh.
