If you are delivering to a UUCP domain, you can do DNS on the MX records. For example, the machine pandora.uucp.kew.com is MX only. DNS is not just address records. So the MAIL FROM address for a UUCP host should either have a valid MX record, or be rewritten to by host!user@relay.fqdn, where of course relay.fqdn has valid address and/or MX records. -- Internet: ahd@kew.com Voice: 617-279-9810 Q. What machine does Windows NT run best on? A. A 35 mm slide projector.
