A user on my UUCP system (tweekco) received the same message.  I sent a
message asking for an explanation on the list, and the post to the list...
global-list@gwinnett.com and to todd@gwinnett (who is listed as the sysadmin
at gwinnett).  My user, nor I have received any message back yet.

gwinnett shows in the uucp maps as being in Georgia, while abacus mentions
an address of Florida.  global.gwinnett.com does not appear in the current
connects for gwinnett.com.

       tweek@netcom.com  tweek@tweekco.uucp  WWIVNet 5@5058  4@5056 
          I'd rather get my cable service from the phone company,
                than my phone service from the cable company.
