Gee, I get mail from Pro-Line addresses all the time.  Morgan Davis
<mdavis@pro-sol>, Don Elton <delton@pro-carolina>, and Todd South
<tsouth@pro-pac> don't seem to have any trouble getting through.

In spite of the domain style address, Pro-Lines are UUCP hosts.  I've been
told that user@host.bitnet is recognized by Pro-Line mailers.  NOTE that
'bitnet' is NOT a domain, but that numerous mailers are locally modified
to recognize 'bitnet.'

If you want to "roll your own," the most direct paths from your Pro-Line to
a BITNET nodes are in the East: ..!crash!nosc!rutgers!host.bitnet!username
in the Midwest: ..!crash!nosc!uiuc!host.bitnet!username, in the West:
!crash!nosc!ucbvax!host.bitnet!username, and in Europe:
!crash!nosc!mcvax!host.bintet!username
