Nevermind the substance of the note, I'm fascinated by the handling

The two Relays were set up as parallel gateways between CSNet and The
Arpanet. My recollection is that I gave them identical gateway routing
tables. So I don't understand why the mail went from Udel to Rand.
This note was sent only days after I left the CSNet project. So I don't
think it likely anyone reconfigured anything by the time of this message.
And I don't remember configuring anything that would have produced this.
But then, there's lots I don't remember...
I think Mike O'Brien is on this list. He was the Rand admin for this.
