- 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).
