We have been successfully using mh 6.5 for about a year on a vax
running ultrix 1.2.  In September we upgraded to ultrix 2.0 and
things continued to work.  (mh was remade for 2.0)

Last week send started behaving oddly.  Any To: addresses containing a
't' were truncated including the 't'. i.e. support-->suppor.  This
problem occured within post as running post by hand with some debug
switches enabled reported correct addresses, but the mail was bounced
and /usr/spool/mail/syslog showed the incorrect address. /usr/ucb/mail
continued to function properly.

After a day or so the problem dissapeared.  Today the problem
reappeared, but now the offending character is 'p' instead of 't'.

Here is the output from post:

iris<51> /usr/new/lib/mh/post -verbose -debug -watch Mail/draft
To: support
Subject: testing

testing. ignore this.

After this I get a message that user su is unknown.

Here is our configuration:

version: MH 6.5 #47[UCI] (iris) of Fri Sep 25 13:37:47 PDT 1987
options: [BSD42] [BSD43] [BERK] [TTYD] [DUMB] [MHE] [NETWORK] [BIND]
	 [RPATHS] [ATZ] [ISI] [MHRC] [SBACKUP='"#"'] [SENDMTS] [SMTP]
		  [POP]

Can anyone tell me what might be going on here?

Thank you very much,
