We need to get this stuff under control. In the above case, your machine is a member of 'northrup.com', so you don't have to register it. Any mail to gremlin.nrtc.northrop.com, will be sent to 'northrup.com' or even 'nrtc.northrup.com', to be resolved further. Please don't register each and every Timex-sinclair on your private network...
