Hi Juerg,

On 12 May 2000 at 14:34:54 GMT +0200 (which was 13:34 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject
of "extending e-mail adress with 'mailserver'":

Ah  -  this  is  to do with the way address atoms have the server name
added   for   transmission.   Your   mail   server   is   defined   as
mailserver.mydomain.com so, when you just put the name of a recipient,
the  entire  server name is added. Now *you* may know that the mailbox
address should appear without that "mailserver" in the middle, but how
is TB supposed to understand that?

Proof:

                ^^^^^^^^^^

You're  going to have to stop being lazy and add the addresses to your
address book in full.

Here  at  silverstones,  my  mail  server  is silverstones.com so just
putting a first name works perfectly.
