Smail2.5, as distributed has a few problems.  Its binary search
routines don't always find names in the paths file, and it often sends
two copies of a letter to someone (specifically, to a person on the
smart-host if the smart-host is being used to resolve the address of
someone else that the letter is going to).

I have applied two unofficial patches to fix these problems.  They
helped, but both the problems still occur sometimes.  I would
appreciate hearing from anyone that has both these problems completely
solved.  Thanks.
