The necessary table entries in order to recognize
a domain as valid is

-- in a domain table

	name:	canonical.domain.name

-- in a channel table

	canonical.domain.name:	information-specific-to-that-channel

In your case .. I assume you have an "mi.org" domain table.  That
should contain the entry

	acorus:	acorus.mi.org

You might also put, in your UUCP domain table, the same line.
This will let "acorus.uucp" be recognized & mapped to "acorus.mi.org".

Then in your UUCP channel table you put

	acorus.mi.org:	acorus!%s
	acorus.uucp:	acorus!%s

The last is redundant and possibly unecessary.  But then I
am a sometime member of the Department for Redundancy Department.
