Thanks to you both. Adding To and From headers solves the issue, and the mail
is accepted.

Larry's response is correct except for this one detail. Actually, this
message has a Subject: header and a non-conformant "This" header and

Oops. I looked at the original way too quickly. Thanks, Mark, for correcting my
post. The lesson in
this is that SMTP, like almost all computer command sets, is very intolerant of
even the slightest
mistake. It does exactly what you tell it to do and has no idea what you meant
when you get it
wrong. Using Telnet to test SMTP has its uses (I do it to make sure the
anti-spam controls on the
commands works since that's hard to do by other means) but unless you are
prepared to type
everything in painful detail, expect weird results. Mailman is best tested with
real messages sent
by a proper MUA.
