Hi All,
	Lately, I've noticed a number of people have been getting problems
receiving any of my emails, and looking in the logs, I'm seeing a lot of
messages like the following:

I'm using QMail as the SMTP server, and have been using it previously
for years.  On the client side, I generally use Thunderbird or KMail
when at home, KMail on the laptop and eGroupWare or SquirrelMail for
webmail.  Qmail normally jumps up and down if you go passing non-RFC822
complient emails through it, but I haven't had that the time I've ran
the server.

I've looked on Mozilla's Bugzilla, the MozillaZine forums, and done some
googling, but I haven't yet been able to track down the cause of this
problem.

Has anyone else struck this issue?  Anyone know a workaround?
