Hi all. After a netmail from Nick I've opted to read the thread and join the
discussion. I am running Fastecho at 3:770/1 and have been for many years. In
my netmail to Nick I picked up a small entry in the docs

        When your system acts  as outbound zonegate you  may need to  strip
    addressed out-of-zone.  FastEcho  is  capable  to  do  that  simply  by
    enabling this feature (which is disabled by default). This can be  done
    by using the flag ZONEGATE  in FEOPT. In any  case FastEcho acts as  an
    processing EchoMail coming from another zone.

So my system may well be the culprit? But it was certainly not intentional
nor to my knowledge has even been an issue prior. I'm happy to work with
folks to try and resolve the problem. 

Best, Paul
