Return mail would come back through decwrl just like it was supposed to. Now I am phil@amdcad.amd.com, which decwrl thinks is an Internet site. Decwrl looks us up and discovers that sun is the approved gateway to us and ships my mail to sun which finally sends it to me. Now all my mail from DEC's enet gets to pass through an extra site, sun, to get to me. Obviously an improvement. (sarcasm) I hate smail. -- Butter and salt can make almost anything taste good.
