[comp.misc] Soviet sites

Is there currently a list of 'mailable' sites in the Soviet Union?
We may have need to correspond with fellow researchers there.

Thanks!

Would you not consider the sites that are listed in u.sun.1 in comp.mail.maps
to be "mailable"? Start with the listed sites, I'd say, and find your way to
the hidden ones if there are any.

All mail that I know of goes through the machine hq.demos.su, which
is connected via uucp to fuug.fi (Finland UUG, Helsinki).  Last I
tried, our nameservice was smart enough to route .su mail via fuug.fi
by itself.  You might be able to get site info from postmaster@hq.demos.su,
but I don't know that they have a real "list" either.  Or maybe try
postmaster@public.su (if that is a real machine, not a pseudo domain).

PS: they get netnews, so questions like this should be made
    "Distribution: world", not just usa.
