In the second paragraph after the example code, delete two

sentences and a footnote. The text used to read:

"SMTP provides direct end-to-end mail delivery. Most other
mail system use fIstore and forwardfR protocols like X.400
that move mail toward its destination one hop at a time,
storing the complete message at each hop and then forwarding
it on to the next system. The message proceeds in this manner
until final delivery is made. Figure 3.3 illustrates both
store and forward and direct delivery mail systems. The UUCP
e-mail address clearly shows the path that the mail takes to
its destination, while the SMTP mail address implies direct
delivery.**"

Footnote:

"The address doesn't have anything to do with whether or not
a system is store and forward or direct delivery. It just
happens that UUCP provides an address that helps to illustrate
this point."

It now reads:

"SMTP provides direct end-to-end mail delivery. Most other
mail systems use fIstore and forwardfR protocols like X.400
that move mail toward its destination one hop at a time,
storing the complete message at each hop and then forwarding
it on to the next system. The message proceeds in this manner
until final delivery is made."

(No footnote).
