Please note that it violates a design goal of the sipb locker
(independence of the sipb AFS cell) to have AFS references like this.
Using /mit/sipb would be preferrable.  It also violates the locker
model proper to rely on an @sys symlink; using `athdir /mit/sipb`
would be preferrable to /mit/sipb/bin.

(But using sendmail is probably the easiest and most robust.)
