	if (sending_host has a net-10 interface
	    && receiving_host has a net-10 interface)
		use that address;

even if receiving_host has more than one address.

then, later in the program, we see

	if (can't connect to receiving_host)
		ignore other addresses;

some mailers that do such things, *might* be running on tops-20 machines.

they should be fixed.
