.forward before: final(_at_)destination(_dot_)com

final(_at_)destination(_dot_)com"

Each server has to know the SRS secret(s).

/etc/aliases:

srs0:     "|/usr/bin/srs -reverse --secret=/etc/srs.secret"
srs1:     "|/usr/bin/srs -reverse --secret=/etc/srs.secret"

The above proposed "srs" syntax is just one possible form.

I have taken this email as an approximate specification, and have included 
such a script in version 0.23 of Mail::SRS. I am eager to include such 
glue in the standard distribution, since it helps the less technical 
implementors and keeps everyone speaking the same language for support 
questions.
