No, the above will work for incoming messages with return path of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which were rejected otherwise with the Verify Return paths
option on.
The router record setsthe "safe route" flag for the message, the ".smtp" suffix
prevents the next router record from being applied, so the address becomes valid and
passes return path verification.
There may be a problem for outgoing messages, since the same router record will be
applied if a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is sent/relayed through SIMS.
