And that really delights the UUNET management. Another one for the new users: UUNET is a service; it is NOT a UUCP router for the known universe. Use UUNET to send mail to UUNET customers. Do not use UUNET to send mail to some random site in Outer Boondocks, Nebraska, because you're too lazy to figure out how to get the mail there yourself. Such behavior is frowned upon. I would rather trust mail routing to my pathalias and your map entry than to one arbitrary route given in your signature.
