I don't know how it is in the Navy, but there are some .army.mil hosts
which cannot send mail outside Milnet because of staff apathy or an
attitude that none of their users should be sending outside the domain
anyways, so misconfiguration doesn't get corrected.  

Fortunately, some users know enough to bring in outsiders who can set 
the local staff on a more intelligent course. 

I'm sending Jerry separately two postings which summarize a problem at 
Fort Ritchie last summer and its resolution.  They identify some Army
and Air Force people who are quite willing to help out where possible.

Anyone else who might want to consult them on illuminating dark crevices in .mil .
of Milnet should send me private mail.
