Wrong!

The document you are looking at is quite old.  I have a copy from
March 11, 1986 that reads as follows:


> 12 MAIL - EARN TO JANET
>
> The  EARN node must offer some means of constructing mail  according  to
> the RFC822 standard and sending it to userid MAILER at EARN node UKACRL.
> The  Columbia  Mailer  with  an appropriate internet exit  is  one  such
> suitable system. The destination system must offer 'Grey Book' mail.

> The 'To:' field must contain:
>
> To: receiver%nrsname@AC.UK
>
> 'receiver' is normally the identification of a recipient which may be  a

We have been sending mail into UKACRL with an RFC822 envelope (no BSMTP
envelope supported yet) with addresses in the following form:

user%nrsname@AC.UK
user@reversed_nrsname


In actuality, 'AC.UK' is an alias for UKACRL.  'nrsname' is the janet
address in 'UK.AC.....' format.  The 'reversed_nsrname' format also works:
user@node.node.AC.UK
as long as the mail gets to MAILER@UKACRL.
