#R (recipient) gives an example of an address on the destination network,
to make it clear in subsequent lines what text requires subsitution.

#I (instructions) lines, of which there may be several, give verbal
instructions to a user of the source network to let them send mail
to a user on the destination network.  Text that needs to be typed
will appear in double quotes, with C-style escapes if necessary.
