Either way it's no skin off anyone's nose and a tiny amount of time
invested.

Curious, I ran a test on his email address from the Headers:
dmendoza(a)ain.cu . The results were [ comments in square brackets are mine ]:
============

Connected
response: 220-mail.ain.cu ESMTP MDaemon 10.0.0; Sat, 19 Dec 2009

Your server may not configured to accept "domain literals".
Refusal of "domain literals" like tester(a)68.238.90.145 is a violation of

==========

I verified it at a second tester too and it equated to existing there, too.
So apparently the e-mail address is at least real. I never actually sent an
email to see if it bounced.
I did also noted however, find that it was BLOCKLISTED on a gazillion
lists<g>, but couldn't verify it at Robtex; so I might have been reading
some other country's blocking comments.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's just someone that noticed duplicates of
names here on this list and also existing in Cuba, and the OP apparently
doesn't realize that unless the "@..." is also identical, it's not a
duplicate.
Nice little touch abut the "great journalist". He must have meant well
known or something.

I found it an interesting sidetrip anyway if nothing else. lol, according to
Robtex, the "entire tld is rfc-ignorant" in the blacklists report. Checking
ain.cu at siteanalytics.com, they are apparently almost brand new. Min
popularity and no other reputation points.

Cheers,

Twayne
