	A week ago I was at the throes of a flu...  (or perhaps it was
	just some 'cold', as it took only about 10 days for me to recover.)

	I think this is a telltale of malformed routing result from
	within the router.

	For a given routing spool file  1234,  do following with
	interactive router, e.g.:

	# $MAILBIN/router -i
	...
	z# cd $POSTOFFICE/router
	z# rtrace
	z# process 1234

	You get lots of output (log it somehow), and among it is
	the malformed routing result.  Knowing the particular one,
	and the address and its processing which did lead to it,
	will tell us more about what is really wrong.
