I have uuhosts up and running, and when I do a 'uuhosts -f' to get the full
path entry for a host, it usually prints something like:


UUCP mail information for host lakart:
#Name			lakart
#System-CPU-OS		Integrated Solutions V24; Motorola 68020; Berkeley 4.3 UNIX
#Organization		Lakart Corporation, Newton, MA
#Contact		David Goodenough
#Electronic-Address	lakart!dg
#Telephone		+1 617 244 6881
#Postal-Address		287 Grove Street, Newton, MA, 02166
#Latitude-Longitude	42 21 N / 71 08 W
#Remarks	
#Written-by		lakart!dg (David Goodenough); Mon Oct  3 11:24:26 EDT 1988
#USENET			cfisun
#
lakart	xait(DAILY), cfisun(DAILY), mirror(DAILY), pallio(DAILY)


which is all well and good. But a number of hosts have a #F field (ames
for example), which uuhosts and the mapping README file don't know about.
What is this #F field?


UUCP mail information for host ames:
#Name			.nasa.gov, ames
#F	ames.arc.nasa.gov			<<<<<<<<<<<<<
#System-CPU-OS		ISI/68020; 4.3BSD
#Organization		NASA Ames Research Center
etc. etc. etc.


It strikes me that my version of uuhosts is a little lacking in knowledge,
I'd like to fix it.

Comments anyone?
