Thanks Brian's email address is: bfox@wheaties.ai.mit.edu > >PROLINE: crash!pro-freedom!billp > INET: billp@pro-freedom.cts.com > UUUP: crash!pro-freedom!billp Why do all proline contributors to info-apple leave off an essential component of their addresses? 1) 'cts' (Crash Time Sharing) is not directly connected to the Internet - a fact that's not going to bother anyone who IS actually on the Internet, BUT that INET address above will get BOUNCED to anyone trying to reach 'cts' from BITNet 2) The MX (Mail eXchanger) for 'cts' is 'nosc.mil' (something I'm aware of but is practically guaranteed to stump many <especially new> BITNet users). 3) billp%pro-freedom.cts.com@nosc.mil works from BITNet (and is essentially what an Internet mail exchanger will produce, so it really IS the correct rendering -- technically not as correct as @nosc.mil:billp@pro-freedom.cts.com -- but many BITNet mailers can't digest that either. In short would you all on pro-lines please add @nosc.mil at the end of your INET addresses so "Bitnauts" (users of BITNet; I didn't coin that - complain to the CS Department at MAINE.BITNet about that one) can find you (without asking me how 8-) ??
