uumail release 4.0 uses almost the same subroutines that smail does to
obtain a path to a domain. It also does one thing that smail does not do;
it will send mail it cannot resolve to a "more intelligent" host for
processing of paths it cannot resolve. This means you can have one host
on your network that has the maps and forward all mail to that host for
processing. This is similiar in principle to the "mailpaths" processing
in news Version 2.11.

uumail release 4.0 does not use the "domains" file anymore. uupath and address
are included with the release and I believe it will run on the Pryamid now.
If you try it and it fails, please send me some mail and I will get access
to a Pryamid and fix it.

Please direct future bug reports to me.
