    Ps> Does Mystic currently handle netmail addressed to "ping" to reply back   
    Ps> to the sender a route path the netmail has taken thus far, and continue   
    Ps> sending on the original as expected?   
      
   Let me make sure I understand exactly what you're asking for.   
      
   I've never heard of anything keying off of "ping" before.  If someone has a   
   handle of "ping" then they would never get netmail!  What has this feature?  If   
   I do something like this it probably wouldn't be ping but something less likely   
   to be someone's alias.   
      
   Anyway...   
      
   You want a message sent to "ping" to be replied to automatically and include   
   the PATH kludges, I get that part.  But then what happens to it?  What do you   
   mean by continuing to send?  Send it to where?  Mystic shouldn't be touching   
   netmails that aren't addressed to it ever, except to reroute them if needed.
