This is an unofficial patch to smail 2.5. It allows smail to try the hostname
as entered before trying any conversions.

Example:

   old smail:    host.sub.domain
         try:    .host.sub.domain
         try:    host.sub.domain
         try:    .sub.domain
         try:    sub.domain
                 etc

   new smail:    host.sub.domain
         try:    host.sub.domain  \____   These two have been reversed
         try:    .host.sub.domain /
         try:    .sub.domain         <--  from this point down the behaviour
         try:    sub.domain               is the same.
                 etc


I've been running this for about 8 months without any problems. I cannot
guarantee that you will have the same results nor will take responsibility
for any loss mail that results from applying this patch.
