**** Gee Phil, that means that I can't send mail to you! See, I configured
my machine so anything.ampr.org goes to the TNC. Yes, I know that's not
how IP ``really'' works, and it doesn't
work very well for any machine that I can't get a direct smtp link to,
but given that we don't do DNS, and that my main connection is
just UUCP with a single config-file-hard-coded ``smart'' host, I
really couldn't figure any other way to do it. Surely there are a lot
of amateur TCP'ers doing the same thing....
