Given that this is a loop solely AT > rutgers, I'm not impressed. Bull. The path is ...!rutgers!andromeda!antares!zeus. If you look at the Received: headers, the problem is at andromeda, not rutgers. In fact, rutgers continues to do the right thing throughout the loop - sending it to andromeda - because that's how you get to antares! "Solely AT rutgers"? If you mean "solely within Rutgers University", you don't know much about the internals politics here.
