Subject: spurious ABORT message?

Folks,

A user who sent a message through resend (1.94) received the following:

MAJORDOMO ABORT

Mailer /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -fTuck.Alumni.Affairs.Office@Dartmouth.EDU
tuck-alumni-news-outgoing exited unexpectedly with error 16384

Yet the message seems to have been processed normally, albeit with several
"user unknown" and "host unknown" addresses.  That value is 0x4000, which
corresponds to an exit value of 64 decimal from sendmail. I'm wondering if
there is really something wrong here or if that is an expected exit value from
sendmail given the address problems.  I notice that version 1.93 did not check
the return status on the close of the pipe to sendmail, and 1.94 does. Any
thoughts?
