[comp.sys.apple] ARPA vs MIL

davidbrierley@LYNX.NORTHEASTERN.EDU (01/16/89)

     Should contributions to info-apple be sent "info-apple@brl.arpa" or
"info-apple@brl.mil"?  Is one of those forms faster? Or are there any
differences at all?

"BRL" is a host that re-routes incoming mail to the appropriate host
on our campus subnet.  It is accessible on both the MILnet and the
ARPAnet.  If your system understands domains then I believe BRL.MIL
would be the preferred version.

     I'd like to thank everyone who has mailed me info on this.  For anyone
who does not yet know the correct suffix is "mil" - not "arpa".  Thank you.
