Hi Zaka, The stageful forwarding takes place in the t_relay() function. If relaying is unsuccessful then an error is returned and the conditional block executed to send an error back to the originator using sl_reply_error().
Your other question is about why to use the call to route(1): Yes you could just put the content of route[1] into the main route block and it would work fine. In more complex scripts it is neater to put code which is executed in lots of different place into a separate block and then call the block. That way if you need to modify that code you only have one place to maintain. The t_relay() function is a good example of a block of functionality that is reached from loads of places … so generally a route[relay] block is a good idea.
