It looks like it is back to delivering directly.  I must admit that I
haven't checked this for a little while, but there was a long period
where the mail was not coming directly.  I've just looked back though
some of the mail I've kept from this list, and it looks like it stopped
using the indirect route after 8 April.  It had been using the indirect
route for at least a few months prior to that.
