source routing ==>
source route
<messaging> An electronic mail address which specifies the route the
message should take as a sequence of hostnames. It is called a source route
because the route is determined at the source of the message rather than at each
stage as is now more common. The most common kind of source route is a UUCP
style bang path, "foo!bar!baz!fred'. The RFC 822 syntax, "@foo:@bar:fred@baz",
is seldom seen because most systems which understand RFC 822 also perform
automatic routing based on the destination hostname. A third, intermediate, form
is sometimes seen: "fred%baz%bar@foo.com".
