Could you give us a time frame on this "phasing out"? I had planned to
include the pathalias stuff, an automated database extractor, and
some mailer support in our next release. If the mod.map postings are
going to stop, I either don't want to include this stuff, or at best,
I would include the current database and a method for deleting paths
when users notice that mail isn't making it through a given path.

Any information would help.
