Hello. This is (not only) for some friend in west germany on the
independent uucp net 'subnet'. I'd like to know the status of
your organization; in italy 'sublink' is a .ORG domain as well
since march 1990 and we call direct rutgers.edu.
We get from OLIVETTI OSN  all of the netnews, while we keep for mail
a standalone link with US.
As subnet, we are not on EUnet as well. We appear to be an external
branch of usenet/internet, instead.. It's Ok, since email works 
fine, and our fees are dozens of times lower than eunet's ones.
The question:
do you happen to get your mail to EUnet bounced back sometime?
EUnet has the rights to do it, apparently. 
What i would like to understand is the following:
- one host on EUnet can send to sublink.
Sublink pays for US-->italy trafic and delivers the stuff.
- replies sometime (!) are rejected on mcsun backbone, and
  come back with something like
  'you are not authorized to send to ...'

I think that EUnet should clarify this point with their hosts, saying
something like 'these guys are not reachable', and cut off any
message going OUT as well.
I wonder what a eunet subscriber would say receiving a
'you are not authorized to send'... 
A friend on Eunet says that -since he pays (a lot) for eunet
services- he has the right to send to us (and i am willing to get his mail!).
What's your situation? 

Please reply to maps@i2ack.sublink.org

Greetings, Paolo
