cojones.com is registered with the NIC and has several MX forwarders.
A correctly functioning mail system should be able to send mail to any
site in the cojones.com domain. Try running whois cojones.com or, if you
don't have whois, telnet to nic.ddn.mil and run whois on cojones.com. I
can verify that mail to wwiv.cojones.com works from a wide variety of
Internet sites; it should work from any of them. Maybe something's not
quite right on your home system? Now, if you're talking about telnetting
or ftp'ing to wwiv.cojones.com, that's a different story. wwiv.cojones.com
is not directly on the Internet. In fact, it doesn't even exist as a
physical machine. It's an alias that is used to gateway news and mail to
WWIVnet, much like the fidonet.org alias.
