sorry for replying to my own post.

In article <19990313000819.A3421@acli.interlog.com> you write:

Some new information. The problem *only* shows up if I
allow-source-routes. Looking through smtpcmds.c, it seems
that ZMailer either drops the source route, or doesn't,
but policytest doesn't know about source routes. So in
the case that I allow-source-routes,

    SS->policyresult = policytest(policydb, &SS->policystate,
                                  POLICY_MAILFROM, cp, addrlen);

would pass a source-routed address to policytest(), which it
doesn't understand.
