Since I've heard that a lot of SNY* users are 'mad as hell' about not
being allowed access to relay it is time to (re)inform the relay community
about why it was necessary. Below is the list of nodes that are excluded
from relay. SUNYNet was actually experiencing link drops because of the
msg load to and from rly@cornellc. Granted, their system needs to be upgraded
but in the meantime the solution is to get rid of the relay traffic. Kevin
Foley (datacomm@snybufva) has graciously offered to be the whipping boy so
feel free to direct sny* users to him.

Sheila,

     As per our telephone conversation, here is the list of SUNY sites that
should be EXCLUDED from RELAY as soon as possible. Please be advised that
this policy MAY change in the future pending a statewide review of its
need/usefulness for SUNY users. Please note that this is NOT all SUNY schools,
but those that we gateway for.

   SNYBUFVA
   SNYBSCVA
   SNYBUFVC
   SNYBUFVE
   CANISIUS
   SNYALFVA
   SNYCANVA
   SNYCAYVB
   SNYCENVA
   SNYCOBVA
   SNYCORVA
   SNYDELVA
   SNYESCVA
   SNYFARVA
   SNYFITVA
   SNYMORVA
   SNYMVCC
   SNYOLDVA
   SNYONEVA
   SNYOSWVA
   SNYPLAVA
   SNYPOTVA
   SNYSICVA
   SNYSYRV1
   SUNYJCC

     We are still interested in getting any available information related to
becoming a RELAY site as a VMS host, in case this becomes a future
requirement. Feel free to direct any future calls or complaints to us. We
are in the process of notifying the SUNY sites of these emergency actions.

     Thank you for your help in this matter.
