} The problem is, we're just edpmgt.cts.com.  It seems that Mush is for some 
} reason prepending another edpmgt to my addresses.

Mush gets the hostnames from the gethostname() system call and uses
whichever one is first in the list returned.  You can override this
by using 'set hostname=edpmgt.cts.com", but you might want to look
into why gethostname() is returning what it is.
