The saga continues ...
The latest unreplyable address at Athabasca U is:
XXX@daffy.FhHosp.AB.CA
The latest u.can.ab.1 map disclaims all knowledge of this domain.
My guess is it's the Foothills Hospital.
Maybe we should send the Calgary network folks a large batch of putty
for Christmas so they can plug all these leaks :-)

The UnCaNet saga, it would seen. One of the members registered on its own (it would appear that whatever plan there was to have them register all in block with John Demco fell into a crack somewhere). The only valid .ab.ca domains are: APSS.Ab.Ca Alberta Public Safety Services ARC.Ab.Ca Alberta Research Council CanOxy.Ab.Ca Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. MtRoyal.Ab.Ca Mount Royal College All others are bogus, and use of the NetNorth, UUCP or Internet routing data (and I'd bet, the CDNNet data too) will result in those bogon addresses being tossed out, as they should be.

I have always wondered how the people associated with that group with unregistered mail addresses ever manage to receive anything but local mail at all. I noticed, however, that the really infamous one, *.adhocnet.ca, is still alive and well and living in the NetNorth routing data. The fact that this keeps the mail (from mailing lists, at least) moving from some subset of the world at large may give those sites a false sense that all is well. Things might work better, on balance, if *.adhocnet.ca disappeared from the face of the earth, since this might prompt those who haven't yet figured out what is required to get mail delivered reliably to do so.

The fellow causing all these problems name is Rom Keiffer. His id is KIEFFER@UNCAEDU.BITNET He seems to be connecting up sites in Calgary before they get registered. In fact some never get registered. I believe it's a leftover from his AdHocnet setup. In anycase I suggest you send him a message. If you want to send to these sites just address them to id%wierdsite@UNCANET.BITNET for example the above case would be xxx%daffy.FhHosp.AB.CA@UNCAEDU.BITNET that should work. Of course if you can't get to bitnet directly well, then oh well... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Chris Thierman E-Mail: cthierma@mts.ucs.UAlberta.CA University Computing Systems Phone: (403) 492-2462 352 General Services Building University Of Alberta Edmonton, Alberta Canada T6G 2H1
