Decvax is mangling mail to many sites. In particular, mail addressed to
somewhere!decvax!utzoo!utcsrgv!utcsstat!laura ends up going to utzoo!laura.
I have only seen this when sites more than one hop away from decvax try to
send me mail (probably as a followup to news).

I have sent mail to decvax with examples of this problem. I have received no
acknowledgement, which may mean that their mailer dropped the bug reports onto
the floor. If anyone from decvax is reading this, I can send you more examples
of this problem. Also, utzoo's news feed is now linus, not decvax, so you
can turn news off please.

Everybody else should probably mail through decvax on their own peril.
