It will be routed to the closest LISTSERV to USCMVSA, and delivered to
the mailer on that machine with a hostname of USCMVSA.BITNET; whatever
happens from that point depends on the mailer, presently it will deliver
via BITNET, if John changes this behaviour it may do something else.
The :internet. tag is used in the other direction, ie if it sees
MVSA.USC.EDU it will route the message via DISTRIBUTE to get as close to
USCMVSA as possible, and finally deliver to the mail with the .USC.EDU
address.
