bogus NMCI address from .com and .mil (non-NMCI) and in both cases the bogus messages were accepted by NMCI. This has always been a major issue
with NMCI and has caused many problems. Good for you if you fixed it,
but it still seems to be broken from my end of the Navy.
I have no idea who NMCI is. They might have changed acronyms. At
the time it was Navsea, SEA-05 (and SEA-04 administration). It was
also a ccMail gateway. My god, I hope they aren't still using that ;-)
