Except for bonodea, other machines on the net have already been
registered with those names.  In particular, apollo is Apollo
Computer, Inc., who probably won't like you getting all their
mail--and you probably won't like dealing with all of it.

Except for special cases, internal workstations should not be
published in the maps.  Besides, since you have Suns, it's
nicer for your users to have all mail delivered to the server
and keep the others hidden.
