To be fair, a simple mixup of sender and recipient in a case which

times to see what was wrong with it and I was specifically looking
for an error).

The RFC 821 text is:

| The sender-SMTP should send another command specifying whether to

Hector's source says:

Not only a simple mixup apparently.
