Actually, I suspect the situation is somewhat simpler. It is possible
transmet.com may only have one mailbox that everything funnels into.
Their mail is hosted by "registeredsite.com", which has a somewhat
invalid web presence (IP address = 10.0.0.1).

of metal flakes, and does not appear to have a particularly large web
presence.
