[nos-bbs] JNOS return to sender

[maiko at pcsinternet.ca]

Actually, if this is SMTP side, I am wondering if it should be :

    kf5jrv%kf5jrv.#nwar.ar.usa.na at winnipeg.ampr.org

Note the additional @winnipeg.ampr.org is my own SMTP side ...

PS : kf5jrv, this was from a general grep of my logs, not picking on you
