SYMPTOMS

When a message is sent using the message handling system (MHS) Extended Addressing format, the address specified on the Cc: field is moved to the To: field.

The problem only occurs when MHS Extended Addressing style is used; for example, user@host {<e-mail type>:<e-mail address>}; that is, user@host {CCMAIL:test,user}. If another style of addressing is used, the problem does not occur; for example, [mhs:user@gtwy{net/po/user}].
