You can't  use wildcards with SERVE,  but you can serve  the gateway off.
Usually these non-compliant  gateways send mail directly  via NJE (they'd
have a hard time convincing a mailer to take the junk they generate), and
serving their NJE address off takes  care of everything from the gateway.
You can use  wildcards in the TRAPIN configuration variable  to take care
of things SERVE is not flexible  enough for, but that variable is limited
to 255  bytes (like all configuration  variables - thanks IBM  for making
GLOBALV win the Guinness award of misdesigned software).
