- cojones.com is registered with the NIC and has several MX forwarders.
- A correctly functioning mail system should be able to send mail to any
- site in the cojones.com domain. Try running whois cojones.com or, if you
- don't have whois, telnet to nic.ddn.mil and run whois on cojones.com. I
- can verify that mail to wwiv.cojones.com works from a wide variety of
- Internet sites; it should work from any of them. Maybe something's not
- quite right on your home system? Now, if you're talking about telnetting
- or ftp'ing to wwiv.cojones.com, that's a different story. wwiv.cojones.com
- is not directly on the Internet. In fact, it doesn't even exist as a
- physical machine. It's an alias that is used to gateway news and mail to
- WWIVnet, much like the fidonet.org alias.
