Mail to Ireland via ukc

I've run into a problem sending mail to Irish sites (e.g. mevax1.tcd.ie) via
mcvax. I used to use
	mcvax!mevax1.tcd.ie!user@uunet.uu.net
and everything was OK (I believe the message went from mcvax to ukc and
thence to iclitc (or whatever the Irish backbone is)).

Now, the problem: just the other day I had a message bounced by ukc, who
apparently are only forwarding mail from 'authorised' users. My question,
therefore: is ukc the only gateway to Irish sites or does there exist <X> such
that
	mcvax!<X>!mevax1.tcd.ie!user@uunet.uu.net 
will do the trick?

Any advice gratefully received!

Thanks
