It seems to me that there could be a much easier way to tell LISTSERV-NJE
what to do with messages that could be sent by BITNET or the Internet.
Rather than having to track down and install an unsupported exit that
doesn't offer all the reasonable options, how about some simple LISTSERV
parameters to handle the normal cases?  Exits ought to be reserved for
the unusual cases.  I would like to say what to do with Internet
addresses in my own domain, Internet addresses in other domains, and
whether to pay attention to the :interconnect value in DOMAIN NAMES.
