I'm having a similar problem with Ask 2.4.1.  I send a message to my
ASK-enabled address, and immediately I get back two separate error messages.
The first one reads:


This is the Postfix program at host osc1.osc.co.cr.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned
below could not be delivered to one or more destinations.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the message returned below.

The Postfix program

<@osc.co.cr>: null username in @osc.co.cr



The second one:

This is the Postfix program at host osc1.osc.co.cr.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned
below could not be delivered to one or more destinations.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the message returned below.

The Postfix program

<--home=/home/[email protected]>: invalid recipient syntax:
    "--home=/home/[email protected]"

My ASK.log is attached. Any suggestions are welcome.
