I regularly send mail from DEC's E-net through ihnp4 (direct connection
decwrl-ihnp4) to an AT&T site (in New Jersey) two hops from ihnp4. I have
never had any problems -- mail seems to take half an hour to an hour for
the one-way trip in either direction. Only once have I seen anything
strange done by ihnp4, and that was when it rerouted a message to me through
amcad (or something like that), which I found strange, since ihnp4 and decwrl
talk to each other. This rerouting happened a few months ago. I think ihnp4
and anyone taking care of it is doing a good job. If it's not fast enough,
pick another path.
