Andy, a different solution:
1. Get all of the sites you know to update their UUCP connections
for the nmail/mkpath programs.
2. USE these programs, and, if you're worried about harpo (and harpo
has NOT been reliable) compile your database without harpo connections
included. Then recompile your database WITH harpo connections.
3. Torque the nmail program (I will gladly send you the torqued source if
you don't want to do it yourself) so that it attempts to open the 2nd
argument as a database file. Then.... if people want they can access
harpo, or if they don't, by default they won't. This is a great way
to force your mail to avoid machines you are scared of.
4. Go back to step 1 and repeat until nmail and mkpath are what they
