As a hypothetical.....

Suppose I had a uucp connection to a machine on the internet, but not
on AARNet and not directly connected to AARNet (e.g. connected via the
US and a company-internal IP net).  Could I get a .com.au MX pointing
to this host without paying the AARNet mail-affiliate cost?  Without
paying anything?

And who would I (hypothetically) ask to set it up?

Greg, asking for a friend!
