At our side we've a central mail host, which is not the host at which
I'm working. Our mail system is configured in such a way, that no
hostnames are in our email addresses (eg: muenkel@tnt.uni-hannover.de
and not muenkel@daedalus.tnt.uni-hannover.de). This works fine, if I
don't send an email to one of our local mail group aliases - in that
case my hostname is appended at the alias (eg: all@daedalus instead of
all@tnt.uni-hannover.de). This happens only to users, which are
sending their emails with the XEmacs. Therefore I think, that the
XEmacs adds it.

The aliases are defined in a NIS table. I'm using vm for sending
emails. The variable mail-host-address is set to tnt.uni-hannover.de.

Is this behaviour a bug in the XEmacs, or only a misconfiguration?
