Use the following REXX EXEC, after entering the command:
   TELL LISTSERV AT ASUACAD SHOW PATH UICVM INDST ( NOSPEED
in order to determine the BITNET topology from UICVM to INDST:
 
/* REXX, of course */ address command
'IDENTIFY (LIFO'; pull k1 k2 k3 k4 rscs k6
 N.1 = 'UICVM'; N.2 = 'PURCCVM'; N.3 = 'INDYCMS'; N.4 = 'INDST'
 do K=1 to 3; KK=1+K
   'CP SMSG' rscs 'CMD' N.K  'QUERY' N.KK 'F'
   'CP SMSG' rscs 'CMD' N.KK 'QUERY' N.K  'F'
 end
'CP SET MSG ON'  /* Or, use 'IUCV' instead of 'ON',
                    if you have IUCVTRAP activitated! */
'CP SLEEP 1 MIN' /* Wait for asynchronous replies */
 exit
 
The results (reformatted, of course) are:
  UICVM   has 20 files queued for PURCCVM  (11 files queued the other way),
  PURCCVM has  7 files queued for INDYCMS (667 files queued the other way).
 
So, either users at INDYCMS are prolific E-mail users,
or LISTSERV@INDYCMS is generating huge volumes of E-mail
(could it be that "Mail-Via= DIST" isn't being used for the "heavy" lists?)
