In article <383@ncr-sd.UUCP> greg@ncr-sd.UUCP (Greg Noel) apologizes:

Hypothetical situation: suppose I see this and conclude I needn't
worry; I didn't send any mail through ncr-sd recently.  But then

in article <3080@sun.uucp>, chuq@sun.uucp (Chuq Von Rospach) informs us:
> ihnp4 uses pathalias (or a variant of it) to do routing.

So, how do I know ihnp4 didn't pathalias me through ncr-sd?

Suppose further, that there was some way that I included "postage"
with my mail to help ihnp4 pay its phone bills.  Would I then be
entitled to complain?  If so, to whom?  How long would it be before
I even knew I had a complaint?

Just wondering.
