Thank you, Kenneth A.  I have seen what could amount to infinite loops
long ago, when a mail path simply went bwyond the small (100 chars) buffer
size.  It wasn't due to anything like our routing -- sinply was a long
path.  What I noticed was that uuxqt would always bomb there.  I guess
this is a sufficient test, although certainly a better one could be
done, like a double detection of something passing thru a particular
site.
