regarding hokey's assertion that "[t]here is no redundant cbosgd in
[cbosgd!cbosgd.ATT.UUCP!db] line," this is transparent doublespeak.
smail, in an attempt to eliminate operator precedence ambiguity, is
using overkill.  there is no logical reason to name cbosgd twice in the
route, just a lack of vision on the authors' parts.  i see no
contribution to robust mail routing here.
