  11. We are re-working our sendmail configuration, and our mail relay 
  12. host currently attempts to route addresses of the form:
  13.  
  14. <@a,@b,@c:u@h> 
  15.  
  16. to "a", however from what I've been reading from several places 
  17. it sounds like many sites are simply throwing away the source-route and
  18. resolving straight to "u@h".  Is this the recommended practice
  19. now and/or is there any harm in this?
  20.  
  21. thanks.
