                            16.11 Examples

     Here are a few examples of route files and how to use route
     commands:


         schedule @ *


     This is the most simple of route files and qualifies all systems
     for mailing. It will force FD to use its default routing rules
     for mail to all systems.

         schedule @ *
             route-to    2:512/1 2:*
             hold        2:512/1 !CM !HST

     This qualifies all systems for mailing, routes all mail destined
     for zone two through 2:512/1, and places the mail for 2:512/1
     (including the routed mail) and any systems, that do not have the
     CM or HST flags in their nodelist entry, on hold.


         schedule @ MYNET

     This qualifies all systems in your own net and uses default
     routing.


         schedule @
             send-to     1:* 2:* 3:*
             route-to    2:512/1 2:*
                 except  2:201/329
                         2:201/130
             route-to    3:632/348 3:*
             deny        MYNET

     This qualifies all systems in zone one, two, and three. Routes
     all mail destined for zone two through 2:512/1 except for mail
     destined 2:201/329 and 2:201/130, routes all mail destined for
     zone three through 3:632/348, and prevents systems in your own
     net from picking up their mail.


         schedule B *
             hold        *
                 except  2:*
             no-route    2:*

     This qualifies all systems, holds all mail except mail destined
     for systems in zone two, and sends mail destined for zone two
     directly to its destination.


         hold *

         schedule D MYNET
             unhold MYNET

         schedule A 1:*
             unhold 1:*

     This holds all mail by default (the HOLD command is in the global
     section).

     Schedule D sends mail to all systems in your own net.

     Schedule A sends mail to all systems in zone one.
