One of our editors just sent in the following question.  I suspect
that she can't get by with a simple host name change here, but
sometimes perhaps she can.  I don't know where to tell her to look
for equivanent nodes that might still work enough to get a message
through to the postmaster, but I thought one of you might.
 
Thanks for your help,

        Is there a database somewhere with the name of computer hosts?
The change in names of computers causes some hassles with error messages
and I wondered if there was a place one could find out the new name.  I
ignore these messages the first couple of days because sometimes it's
just machines acting funny, but if they're prolonged I'd like to change
the subscription rather than getting the error messages.  As we both
know, some of our subscribers may be computer literate, but never catch
that the name of their machine changed.
 
        Thanks.
