Majordomo 1.93 didn't like the X.400 address (I assume that's what this is) of 
somebody that tried to subscribe to one of my mailing lists.  I've looked at 
the code in majordomo.pl and I see where it's doing the "hostile" checks.  But 
I don't know enough about X.400 to know how liberal this checking should be 
to allow addresses like the one below.

Have any X.400 sites patched this code with better pattern checks?
