Below is an extraction of my MAIL.LOG file.  As you can see I am having a
problem with the text <NOT in the user name field.  This is causing
a lot of problems.  Cannot track it down.  Been trying all kinds
of tests and cannot detect a pattern.

Not all messages have this problem.  Below is output from search mail.log "<NOT"
