Because it is so well connected, well run, and has smart |routing software, many people have chosen to send much of their |electronic mail through ihnp4. This use of ihnp4 as a free mail |forwarder has reached the point where it is being unfairly overloaded. |This overload has to be rectified. Management has decided to |discontinue passing third party email through AT&T machines. We will |allow time for people time to find other paths. There are many |commercial mail services that will be happy to take on your load. We |recommend AT&T Mail, who can be reached at 800-MAIL-672. | Oh, and, by the way, don't forget to modify your own UUCP software so that messages originating in, or destined for, att sites are disposed of in a prompt and inexpensive fashion.
