That's good.  For those of us with limited nameservers, could you post the
Internet address in numeric form, please?

 As of yet, there is no numeric addresses.  'ieeefs.ieee.org' uses a UUCP 
 connection to get mail and News from the Nameserver.  One of the machines at 
 Rutgers is performing that function for us in the interim.  

 In a few months, our 56kb line to JvNC will be installed and we will be able 
 to re-locate the Nameserver to the Piscataway Service Center.  I would hope 
 that we will be able to set up some anonymous ftp service at that time also.

Actually, given that nslookup says:
	ieeefs.ieee.org	preference = 20, mail exchanger = pilot.njin.net
	pilot.njin.net	inet address = 128.6.7.38
	pilot.njin.net	inet address = 128.6.18.38
What you could use is something like
		joe%ieeefs.ieee.org@128.6.7.38
or similar. But your sendmail may choke on a numeric address.

 Yes, most versions of sendmail will choke on the numeric addresses.

 'ieeefs.ieee.org' has *only* UUCP links at the present time.  Note that
 both the MX records (via your 'nslookup') and the map for 'ieeefs' show
 that it connects *only* to pilot.njin.net at the present time.  This
 will, however, change when the 56k link to the Internet is installed here
 in the Piscataway Service Center in a few months.
