Clean is a matter of frame of reference.

You can do it several ways. For better or worse.

If UUCP is your secondary connect, then define all explicit routes in
uulib:domain, and allow smtpd to fall-over to smtppost if that explicit
route isn't found (smtproute = uucp,mx).

If UUCP is your primary connect, and your provider will _refuse_ email
that it can't/shouldn't forward, then allow smtpd to fall over to sendmail
(smtproute = mx,uucp).

There are a variety of other combinations.

BTW, mail doesn't have a path header. I presume you mean double Received:
headers.
