But neither of those will be recognised as "example.com" by a relayer
which is not supposed to send articles back to there (unless its 'sys'
file has been deliberately pre-loaded with "example.com..POSTED", etc).

That is why we invented the ...!example.com!POSTED!... notation (as in our
present draft), and which I still retain even in my 2nd alternative.
