Don't give up yet, it works for me:
term% ndb/csquery /net/cs 'net!$smtp!smtp'
/net/tcp/clone 93.93.130.6!25
/net/tcp/clone 93.93.131.52!25
I'd start by making sure $smtp is expanded
from the environment or the ndb at all.
The error message:
translating net!$smtp!smtp:
seems to suggest it isn't.
Try poking the ndb directly, like so:
ndb/query ipnet 9front smtp

What about:
% ndb/csquery /net/cs 'net!$smtp!25'
Or even:
% ndb/csquery /net/cs 'tcp!$smtp!25'

All,
I was reviewing my mail setup this evening and I came across an old
kludge to forward mail to a relay host on my network in
/mail/lib/rewrite. I used a host-specific dial string rather than
net!$smtp. For kicks, I reverted back to the classic behavior to try
and sort out why the lookup
