Hi,
a few minutes after I sent an eMail to the following address:
remote-printer.Michael@49496166311.iddd.tpc.int
which is a free eMail-to-fax relay service, I received the following eMail
containing an error message:

Hallo Michael,
... rest of the body of the eMail ...
----------------------
However when I sent the same eMail with the Mail Server of a commercial
ISP, I received a confirmation eMail that the fax was sent. As I used to be
able to send eMails with the above address by MIT's Mail server, I wonder
what has changed.
Can you help me with this problem?
Thanks for your help.
regards,
Jan
