This is how the set up appears to be:

                               mail
        zuma ------ anatolia ------- mn.org
     n                  |
     e                  |
     w                  |
     s                uunet

The two paths are different:  anatolia PAYS for news via UUNET and
gets mail at lower cost via a local source.

The sysadmin(?) or mn.org did some posts late last week on the subject:
he has been trying to have a reasonable conversation with cosar, who
seems to be denying any wrongdoing.  The sysadmin of umn is also working
on this problem.

I don't know about you, but *I'm* not receiving anymore posts from
the crazed serdar/mutlu at my site...(at least not in this newsgroup).
