This is what I would term a "redirected" message, not a "forwarded"
message. Both Elm and Eudora have "bounce" or "redirect" mechanisms that
make the mail appear as if there was no intermediate recipient (the
bouncer). Majordomo does not support Resent-From headers.
So really, everything is as it should be. I would file this one under "user
error", or (assuming this VM mailer has no other true forwarding option)
"bad mailer".
