It does not happen when starting "emacs -Q". So I suspect a completion package is in the way. Which one do you use? You can edit the "machine1" part of the file name, if you delete the trailing colon ":" after the host name temporarily. Likely it isn't the final solution we want to get, but it's at least a work around.
