Hi.  I occasionally receive a message that has the last few to 200 or so
characters repeated.  A few months ago i started to note the occurance
of this.  In June and July i noted 6 times, in September none, and in
October 5 times.  This is a pretty small percentage of the messages i
receive.  As far as i can tell, the only thing in common is that all
the messages originated on Unix machines (i think).  In all there were
8 different originating machines.  Can anyone spot the common thread
in this problem?  Can anyone describe the fix?  The eight machines are:
MITRE.ARPA, WISC-RSCH.ARPA, NAVAJO.ARPA, ISI-HOBGOBLIN.ARPA, DCN9.ARPA,
EDN-VAX.ARPA, BORAX.MIT.EDU, and SRI-TSC.ARPA.

--jon.
