I strongly suggest everyone edit the watmath UUCP map entry and change all DEDICATED costs to HOURLY, except for uunet which may be HOURLY/2, and ubc-cs which should be DEMAND. This should put the routes back to normal (after you rerun pathalias). I'll bring this up with Onet sites, to be careful of such things in the future. No local connectivity has changed, only the advertised costs from watmath.

Or, you could do what we do - declare watmath dead. (-dwatmath)
We've had enough trouble with watmath munging headers.

I can vouch for that. Brampton's paths file is back to normal, after
applying the above fix.
Now if I can only figure out what to do about those 16 "can't get there
from here" sites...

Back in December, I was getting bounces from the following path:
lsuc!utai!watmath!alberta!oha!tony
oha was bouncing back "can't send to .tony" (I *think*). Didn't
get any response from watmath by posting/mailing about it at the time
other than from Rayan saying "it's watmath" twice. (quite literally,
those were the only two words in his mail messages). I had done some
testing and it appeared that watmath was doing it, alberta's log appeared
to show that it arrived with the mangulation in the uux command line.
There was some discussion in comp.mail.uucp or comp.sendmail or something
about a bug in sendmail header handling with "From:" lines. I misremember
the details....
I'm sending a new test right now to see if it still happens and I'll send
you the header if it happens again.
