Maybe it is the same behaviour as with mailinglists on postfix? If the To-field contains no domain, postfix tends to add it automatically.

It isn't just Postfix, many MTAs do that.

"To: arnt" isn't legal syntax today, but it was legal a few decades ago and quite commonly used for years after the syntax changed (in, IIRC, 1982) and various MTAs still contains glue to support that. I think that's mostly a bug these days. It landed on the wrong side of the fence when servers learnt to distinguish between their own users (for whom they will relay) and others.
