Now, this message did bounce, and the bounce message is damned
confusing...

From: Mail Administrator <Postmaster@verizon.net>
To: gene.heskett@verizon.net

This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Your message was not delivered because the destination computer was
not found. Carefully check that it was spelled correctly and try
sending it again if there were any mistakes.

It is also possible that a network problem caused this situation,
so if you are sure the address is correct you might want to try to
send it again. If the problem continues, contact your friendly
system administrator.

Host coyote.coyote.den not found

The following recipients did not receive this message:

<""@coyote.coyote.den>

Please reply to Postmaster@verizon.net
if you feel this message to be in error.
--------------------------
coyote.coyote.den is indeed the name of this machine, but I should be
known to the outside world as gene.heskett AT verizon.net.

So the $64,000 question is how did that domain name even get to the
outside world.

Here is the complete header from the message that elicited that
response from verizons servers.

And there sure as heck isn't any mention of 'coyote.coyote.den' in
that.

So whats the deal verizon??? But asking for an answer is like talking
to a stone wall, verizon has been congenitally (or surgically)
rendered mute by their legal dept. I've yet to get a reply to any of
the several questions I've sent to the Postmaster@verizon.net black
hole.

They have a private newsgroup I used to inhabit, but the snr was so
horrible I gave it up, my remaining lifetime is too short to spend it
argueing east bergen nj politics.
