If I want to send mail from A to B, when both A and B have
USENET access only, is it possible to send part of the mail
through ARPANET? The reason is that intermediate UUCP sites
caused a lot of delays. How can I do that?
Thanx.

Don't do it. The ARPANET is supposed to be used only for the conduct
of official DARPA-related business. Now, this rule does of course
get bent pretty far. But what you're suggesting is probably too
blatant for DARPA to ignore. Done often enough, it could jeopardize
the continuing existence of the ARPANET-UUCP links being used.
