The bug results from a return address, with comment, being looked up again
as an alias or local address, with that additional comment added on.

I fixed this bug in the development version of 2.3.  My fix is to qualify
the return address with the local hostname, which defeats alias expansion
and local address recognition.  Okay, it's not art, but it works.
