I don't think that HOWTO is quite that excellent, actually...

There exists a "sender" condition. The generic "condition" condition isn't
needed.

In example 3, smarthost_alpha and smarthost_beta could be merged. route_list
is a list, you know...

That's not good. The RHS should expand to a boolean value, but that expands to
something like "foobar@???=*@gmail.com"

Why not simply have

      senders = *@gmail.com
?
