Last time I asked they told me they did prefix-based filtering (they had
indeed forgotten one on one of my transit connections to them -- at the

Try deleting the match clause and make it only one AS to prepend, or UUnet
will favour Sprint to route to you.
An alternate route is playing with communities; AS701 supports all sorts

AS701. (Haven't found the webpage yet.)
