I had noticed that it did this, but I just sent myself two emails just
fine, one via a postfix SMTP server, and one via a sendmail SMTP
server. Once each over telnet, and via TB!, all 4 arrived intact. The
question is, what was the error message you got back from your
undelivered email to the literal address? Did you even get one?
