Messages from UMass.bitnet are showing up, chiefly in mod.music.gaffa,
with message-ids that do not conform to rfc850/rfc822. Example:
Message-ID: <870304165022.0000028A.AEHS.MA@UMass> (UMass-Mailer 4.03)
The extra string after the '>' is causing nntp servers to abort
connections. I have sent mail to postmaster@UMass.bitnet and I will
post a cure for the nntp trouble.
By the way, most messages in mod.music.gaffa also have
Reply-To: Love-Hounds
Very few have a hostname in this field.
