Look in your $POSTOFFICE/router directory for a hyphenated file name...
ie) 12345-5555
then 'mv' that (or those) files out of the way.  These files are what the
outer(s) were working on at the time they died.  
Then scrutinize the "to <" line(s).  They will contain bastardized
addresses hat break the router.  You can fix them manually, and reinsert
them into POSTOFFICE/router.

Are you running pre-s11?

As Matti has suggested before,  you can also run an interactive router:

# $MAILBIN/router -i
z# rtrace
z# process 12345-5555
.
.
.
debug output leading to boom.
