   Yes,  if you look up specialix.co.uk you will get an MX record
   from uunet.uu.net (192.48.92.2).   I beleive that this is derived
   from the maps that ukc posts but can't be 100% sure.

I tried a couple of others under co.uk and they too seemed to have a
MX pointer to uunet.uu.net.  So it is perfectly ok to use MX pointers
to route mail to all uk.  When the EUNET backbone is able to accept
SMTP mail, the pointers will most likely be moved to point to this
side of Atlantic.
