But the maps only control what the automatic routers will do.  There would
still be nothing to prevent neighoring sites from using bang paths to
force the routing (not to imply that anyone would do such a thing).  This
problem is likely to become serious as more commercial services are
available for uucp connections.  Does sendmail allow forwarding rules to
depend on the sender?
