We are currently on both Usenet and the Internet.  I am receiving some
pressure to remove our UUCP links.  We currently use pathalias to
route the UUCP mail.  Any mail to addresses ending in .com, .edu, etc.
we hand off to our Internet gateway machine for delivery.

If we remove ourselves from Usenet, how should we route mail to get to
UUCP-only sites?  I know I could just pick a well-known UUCP-Internet
gateway, but this seems abusive.  Is there some accepted method, or
are we not supposed to send mail to UUCP nodes via the Internet at
all?
