It is a BITNET (NetNorth) pseudo-domain that has been defined for a very long time. It is similar to .NetNorth.CA in that it only exists for BITNET sites and isn't a registered domain. One can reach it by mailing to a BITNET gateway that knows about these pseudo-domains. It'll forward the message to UNCAEDU (Univ of Calgary?) which is the gateway for Adhocnet. Perhaps someone from there can elaborate. rayan
