Has anyone dealt with the problem with DECNET mailers not accepting
messages with To: and Cc: lines greater than 255 characters. The
release notes for DECNET Ultrix say to use a sendmail alias to deal
with the problem. They must be assuming the mailing list that generates 
the long line is local. This is not the case for me. I have mailing
lists coming from other sites to my brain dead DECNET machines.
