This is probably just a coincidence. The @@ implies a bad sendmail rewrite
rule. This is normally only a problem with really old sendmails (8.6 or
earlier) and affects only mail with MAIL FROM:<> (ie a null RFC821 MAIL
FROM line). See http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/lsv-faq.stm#5.5 which discusses
something similar.
At any rate I doubt seriously that it has anything to do with adding the
second card. I don't see how a network card could cause this.
