	Hmm..  Like I suspected:
	"dig a irc.arnes.si" gave:  "CNAME tosc.arnes.si"

	You can test the processing by following way:

# /opt/mail/bin/router -i
...
z# trace functions
z# router test@irc.arnes.si
....

	and look at the output at when it becomes canonified with
	a call to  "canon"  function.

	You MAY get away from it by editing (only slightly) configuration
	files I have bundled at 2.99.41 into  proto/cf/ -subdirectory.
	Use  TELE-FI.cf  as your  router.cf --- the most important set
	in there is the "toplevels" -set!
