the address domain@nic.fr comes back
as the standard address to be used for any operation on domain names, included
creation directly under .fr.
Starting at this date, you won't receive any more the first acknowledgment
'Request for domain nom-du-domaine' which was sent to confirm correct reception
of the e-mail.
But the second acknowledgment following the form check will still be sent
(eventually with an error message). This acknowledgment is always sent to
the NOC of the registrar.
