*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** Help! I am seeking information with explanations on sending mail between users on BITNET, ARPA-net and UUCP net. An explanation would be helpful as would a list of gateway type machines. Any help that could be rendered would be greatly appreciated.

Penn State is a UUCP <=> BITNET gateway. The easiest way to get things on to the BITNET is to use an address of the following form: ...!ihnp4!psuvax1!SITENAME.BITNET!user As for ARPA gateways, I belive that the site WISCVM.BITNET is a BITNET to ARPA net gateway so the following might work: ...!ihnp4!psuvax1!WISCVM.BITNET!sitename.arpa!user I cannot be sure that the above is correct but it feels right. --Daniel Ehrlich =============================================================================== CSNET: ehrlich@penn-state.csnet USPS: The Pennsylvania State University INTERNET: ehrlich@psuvax1.psu.edu Department of Computer Science UUCP: ...!ihnp4!psuvax1!ehrlich 334B Whitmore Laboratory BITNET: ehrlich@psuvax1.bitnet University Park, PA 16802 BELL: (814) 863-1142 "The sky is blue so we know where to stop mowing."
