I looked at the code, and I don't see how that can happen.  If
you can reproduce the problem with PQWK230, send me an archive
that will reproduce the problem and I will look into it.

 FM> In the raw PKT there's an INTL 2:2468/6700 and a FMPT 105 - should I
 FM> send the reply there?

Yep, the INTL + FMPT are what will tell you the address to reply
to, in this case 2:2468/6700.105.

 FM> What caused the faulty From: to be generated?

No idea.  Does it happen with 2.30?  BFN.  Paul.
