That just refers to the _addition_ of the INTL kludge which is not mandatory (I think). But when it's present there is no reason not to use it as intended...
It's just stupid when the INTL kludge shows the message is destined for your system (as the ultimate destination by defintion) to forward it to the address in the header.
Bye, Wilfred.
