If the address doesn't contain "@", I don't think Gnus can determine
reliably whether it's

a) a local system address

b) a misspelling of "never"

c) a misspelling of "always"

So it takes a human to decide.  The only human my Gnus normally has
available is me.

Of course, other people will prefer Gnus to always assume either (b)
or (c).
