Note that the DEC domain appears only on the left hand side of the @,
so it's a local convention. I haven't seen any letters come out that
have just "user@host.DEC" as the return address, and I don't expect to
until (if) .DEC becomes a top-level domain.

It's really unfortunate that a) DECNET uses :: as the user/host
separator, and b) rfc822 is so written that this can't be properly
parsed.
