Just because it's a domain name it need not be a valid (domain part of a) mail address - unless there is an MX.

Again, who "owns" ac.uk ? ESA.XX could be the common 2nd level domain for all organisations with acronym ESA. It's a local decision to associate 2nd level domains with organizations. > Crazy idea: if company X moves from Cologne to Darmstadt, > its domain name would change, they would have to reprint > their letter heads, business cards, etc., and someone would > have to cope with all the bounces of mails sent to the old > domain name... Totally correct. If the company moves, they will have to change their business cards, letter heads ... -Peter
