I'd like to add to that, I've seen the forwarded-to address bounce for gcc.gnu.org addresses because the downstream MX for the forwarded-to address didn't accept sourceware/gcc.gnu.org as an injection point, so I'd like to add my +1 to that plea. (Details to be dug up on request. And if you positively test that it works today, it might still stop working tomorrow.) That's so-far three indications against, with two from admins. ;) brgds, H-P
