: I think that's probably coincidence.  Or are you suggesting that the
: *name service* differences between mi.org and mi.us caused your mail to
: bounce?

sycom.mi.org mail goes through ilium.troy.msen.com
hamjudo.mi.org mail goes through heifetz.msen.com
dojo.mi.org  goes through wsu-cs.cs.wayne.edu , fmsrl7, and destroyer

m-net.ann-arbor.mi.us goes through destroyer and vela
grex.ann-arbor.mi.us goes through destroyer

Mail to Msen customers should not bounce.  If it does we work with
the parties in question and get it fixed.  

For my own part I would rather see the University of Michigan spend
its attention on other public works projects and get out of the
free UUCP feeds business, especially in the parts of the state
where there are commercial providers and other free providers ready
to go at the task.  Now that ITD has a big bill to pay back to the
US Gov't for overcharging for MTS, it hardly makes any sense to me
why they are giving away a service that's either a valuable service
(in which case they should charge for it) or a worthless service
(in which case they should stop doing it).
