I don't know if this is an easy fix and I've just been hacking too long,
or what, but here goes...
I have a Mac SE that is running TSSnet from Alisa systems so that it looks
like a DECnet node. We have a MicroVAX II running ULTRIX 3.0 that is our
DECnet-TCP/IP gateway for mail and what not. We also have many other
machines one of which is a SUN 2/170(?). My problem is this:
When I send mail from my Mac (knight) to the SUN 2/170, it goes to the
MicroVAX II (mx). The MicroVAX II has sendmail munch on it, then sends
it on to the SUN 2/170 (csun). When I read the message on csun, the
headers look like this:

Notice the extra ':' in front of 'mst@knight.csun.edu'. This is the problem.
I have been trying for two days now trying to remove this with no luck.
The address is accepted by mx as 'knight::mst' and is transformed into
'mst@knight.csun.edu', ideally, but this is not the case. HELP!!!
Thanks in advance,
