     This discussion seems to have come full circle.

     Unless I've misunderstood, Smail 2.5 handles domains correctly, at
least at patchlevel 3.

     A paths file entry of:
.site.domain	gateway!%s
fed an address of user@foo.site.domain results in a path of:
gateway!foo.site.domain!user

    Isn't that what it is supposed to do?

    Could it be that the "problem" was already fixed in the first
three patches?  A "patched" kit is available by anonymous ftp from
tut.cis.ohio-state.edu.  The "smart-host" function also works in this
version, unlike the patchlevel 0 version archived at many places.
