I have a copy of a c program called 'reroute' that does this.  It was written
by Lenny Tropiano (lenny@icus.icus.com).  I don't think that it's the same
program you're referring to, but it does what you describe.  It does not
know anything about the pathalias database or smail, but simply allows
you to requeue a job with a new path.  It works with HDB UUCP; I don't
know about others.

I thought the author might speak up, but if you can't find it elsewhere,
I'll be glad to mail you a copy.
