So >does .com -- what is wrong with .com.us? (Other than its length) What is a municipal domain and why should they exist apart from the forwarders? It makes sense to me to make most uucp sites subdomains of their internet forwarder so that wild-card MX's can allow them to come and go without bothering anyone but the forwarder. If all the uucp sites register, the size of the map dbm files will have to double to accomodate both the uucp name and the domain-style name. Why is that a good thing?
