Because uunet lists hplabs as a terminal domain. They list a lot of Internet sites this way. Technically, it is ok for them to send mail directly to hplabs (i.e. uucp->internet->internet), but it is illegal to send it over the internet if the final destination is off of it (i.e. uucp->internet-> internet->uucp). -- Larry Blair ames!vsi1!lmb lmb%vsi1.uucp@ames.arc.nasa.gov
