I too was slightly confused about this for a while. Once I'd sussed it
out, I put big comments in my "configure" file like this:

######################################################################
#                      TRANPORTS CONFIGURATION                       #
######################################################################
#                       ORDER DOES NOT MATTER.                       #
#     Only one appropriate transport is called for each delivery.    #
######################################################################


[blah]

######################################################################
#                      DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION                       #
#                 I.E. "How to handle internal mail"                 #
######################################################################
#                          ORDER DOES MATTER.                        #
#       message is passed to each in turn until it is accepted       #
######################################################################


[blah]

######################################################################
#                      ROUTERS CONFIGURATION                         #
#                I.E.  "How to handle external email"                #
######################################################################
