They could both be true, depending on where the DDN node is in the network. The first one imples this case:

Sender----------------------------DDN (where the receiver is logged in)

The second one implies this case:

Sender------------DDN-------------------Receiver

Perhaps the meaning of "DDN" would clarify which of the two is right.
