It was intended that non-backbone sites may use mail-via=DISTRIBUTE, but this
is not recommended unless their various tables are up to date. With DIST2, the
source node will decide the exact path to be followed by the files and will
enforce it upon the other servers. If it chooses a stupid path, mail
distribution will be inefficient and it won't be the backbone's fault. Anyway
DIST2 is not yet in use so this is a bit academic.
