   Turns out these mysterious netmails were actually intended for a newsgroup    
   alttest that I have set up in Irex as a gate.  I have other newsgroups gated    
   that are working fine and I didn't see where I mucked this one up.  Anyway, I    
   just deleted it as I don't want or need it.  And since doing so I haven't had    
   any issues with unwanted netmail.   
      
   Thanks,
