 PK> .CUT files ARE .PKT files, but with a ROUTING file extension.

 PK> Squish packs mail into .PKT format files, and then the 
 PK> ROUTE.CFG section tells Squish what you wish to DO with 
 PK> those files. The .CUT extension is simply a .PKT format 
 PK> file that has been RENAMED into a format for sending to

 PK> tell Squish to NOT touch the created .PKT file.

According to Squish.doc, the Leave command makes mail inaccessible to polling
systems. Thus nothing gets sent because their file extensions change to *.N?T.
