Let me make sure I understand exactly what you're asking for.

I've never heard of anything keying off of "ping" before.  If someone has a
handle of "ping" then they would never get netmail!  What has this feature?  If
I do something like this it probably wouldn't be ping but something less likely
to be someone's alias.

Anyway...

You want a message sent to "ping" to be replied to automatically and include
the PATH kludges, I get that part.  But then what happens to it?  What do you
mean by continuing to send?  Send it to where?  Mystic shouldn't be touching
netmails that aren't addressed to it ever, except to reroute them if needed.
