I've already gotten a couple of responses concerning my misspelling
of IA-NGNET.army.mil as IA_NGNET.army.mil   Sorry about the mistype,
but that still isn't the problem, because even when I do use
IA-NGNET.army.mil as the node name, mail is still returned unanswered
after 3 days.  Any ideas?  Thanks,

Sean

The host (inet address = 132.94.11.1)
doesn't **currently** seem to be connected to the Internet,
i.e., any attempts to 'PING' or 'FINGER' it do not get a response.

Perhaps, the hardware (HINFO SPERRY 5000 UNIX V) is broken,
or powered-off for the holidays, or the TCP/IP software isn't functioning,
or, it's behind some security-related "firewall", or ...

Try asking the "Postmaster" for the 'army.mil' domain, e.g.,
'POSTMASTER.WESTPOINT-EMH2.ARMY.MIL' to elaborate.
