What also NEEDS to be done is for the UUCP-mapped site which feeds the Internet-only site to submit a new map entry which shows the UUCP-site as a gateway to the domain or sub-domain represented by the Internet-only site. That way UUCP-sites running reasonable routing software will be able to route to the Internet-only site automatically without having to look at the .signature .
