| The net effect is that people can just use name.uucp.net if they are 
| in the uucp maps without putting a huge load on one site.  I'm not 
| in favor of this, but it seems that it could be done.  
| 
| Something similar can be done now - try sending mail to 
| user@any_uucp_name.uunet.net.  It worked last time I tried it.

Sorry, but *only* uunet subscribers are allowed to do that.
