Ok.

Do this,

  Change Crash Normal World
  Route Normal 1:123/500 World

The above will deal with Intermail's default Crash netmail (ie. you won't
have to fuss over changing message flavours from Crash to Normal due to
Intermail's default behaviour for netmail). However the problem with the
above configuration is that all crash flavoured mail will be converted to
normal -- therefore you lose the flexibility of explicitly creating any
on-the-fly crash netmail.

To fix that, based on your original route.cfg (ie. judging your intentions), 

   1: Send  Normal World
   2: Route normal 1:123/500 1:All 2:All 3:All 4:All 5:All 6:ALL
   3: Send  Crash  1:140/1
   4: Send  Crash  1:261/1
   5: Send  Crash  1:261/38
   6: Send  normal 1:123/500

you probably want to turn it into something like this:

  1: Change Crash  Normal    World
  2: Change Normal Crash     1:140/1 1:261/1 1:261/38
  3: Route  Normal 1:123/500 World

which will allow you to send real Crash mail to 1:140/1, 1:261/1 and
1:261/38 while routing everything else through 1:123/500.

You could get creative with Squish schedules if you like :)
