	Routing non-Internet mail is up to the local site to determine.
In other words, it's not elm's problem, but rather your mailer.  Check
with your local postmaster on how to address BITNET mail.  (Most sites
on the Internet aren't configured to handle BITNET mail.  This may
be the case.)

	Also, please get your news software fixed too.  "arachana@hkusub"
is not a valid domain address.
