   Please advise if you get around to fixing this bug as I class it as a serious   
   issue.   
      
   An instance of bad address resulted in my system sending the problem email to   
   my uplink who in turn sent it back (he has such software in use) then I send    
   it   
   back.   
      
      
   To say that it caused some serious secondary issues is a mild understatement    
   as   
   it filled up all available email file extensions i.e., tu0 - 9, a - z.   
      
   This caused no additional mail to be added so downlink lost mails & echos.   
      
   Similar has occured to one other.   
      
   I end up deleting all 0 length files, and asI do not use the system daily can   
   be a major pain :(
