Please note that you may *not* use this addressing for sending to
UK commercial sites ie sites with address sitename.co.uk. The
nsfnet relay is funded purely for use by academic sites ie sites
with address sitename.ac.uk. Alternative addressing for those people
that have trouble with foo@sitename.co.uk is via uunet.uu.net
or ukc.ac.uk.
