Are not all of the eastern European > nodes "hooked in" to the Internet yet? Just curious. The database at the NIC doesn't contain much "fine-level" detail on non-USA hosts. In fact, the only entry seems to be for 'PL-DOM', i.e., the top-level domain for Poland. There are no entries for 'EDU.PL' hosts, other than the listed name-servers (FIZYK2.FUW.EDU.PL and COCOS.FUW.EDU.PL and INFOSERV.II.UJ.EDU.PL) for this domain. ! ^^^^^^^^^^^^ <---- Hint!

Sounds like the user ID at that node is no longer valid, i.e., nothing fancy! The wording of the error-message is probably peculiar to the SunOS software. Remove the ID from your mailing-list.
