I've had this happen to messages of mine at least once, and possibly twice.

I wish I still had the message, but it was some time ago... you'll have to
take my word for it. I seem to recall that one of the participants was at
athena.mit.edu, and I don't recall where the other was, but it was another
university.

Most of the time rerouting just breaks a working path and I end up with
a bounced message or a vanished one.
