Local delivery with Decnet?

Hello all,

sorry, if this is a FAQ...

I try to use MX for the delivery to decnet nodes. My hope: if the node 
is down, MX will retry (not only abort on the first try like vmsmail).

I tested with a nonexisting node named "down" :-)

DEFINE REWRITE_RULE "<{USER}@DOWN>" "<DOWN::USER>"

The rewrite takes place, but then MX attemps to deliver via the smtp 
path (which is the last one in the path list).

My questions: can I really do this with MX? Where are my faults, what 
definitions are missing? What is the recommended procedure for this 
task?

Thank you.
Hans.
