When I received similar email, I sent the following message.  Am I way
off base here?  Thanks.

Excuse me, but just because a site does not choose to continue to maintain
a map entry is no reason to delete it from *my* map entry.  My site still
talks with ilmss.  I still forward news and mail to and from them.  Removing
them from the maps is not the right thing to do.  Delete *their* entry, sure!
But, don't pull them out of everyone else's.  You don't have a map entry
for "falkor", do you?  Yet, it's a real machine that I talk with almost
every day.  Falkor just chooses not to have a map entry.  I keep my map
entry pretty current.  If you think a change (other than a simple typo)
needs to be made, you should consult me first.  If I've committed a typo,
I'd like to at least be informed.  Thanks.  Ron.
