Here are a couple of additional observations I made with
a similiar problem:

Using `Mail -v`, this is the last part of the repeated smtp sessions:

550 <brucewilliamfolliott@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca>... User unknown
ordered deletion of task file from scheduler memory (13113-10396)


The far send sends a message which in part says:

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
<<< RCPT To:<brucewilliamfolliott@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca> ORCPT=rfc822;brucewilliamfolliott@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca
550 <brucewilliamfolliott@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca>... User unknown
421 maildrop.srv.ualberta.ca Lost input channel from scapa.cs.ualberta.ca [129.128.4.44]
