If you're planning to actually push the username.mail.mit.edu in the
official Athena release, you should talk with Network. Currently, it's
not possible to do Kerberos authentication to username.mail.mit.edu,
because they're CNAMEs for poN.mail.mit.edu, and the servers only have
keytabs for poN.mit.edu.
