[comp.mail.misc] receiving e-mail from Stmarys University in Nova Scotia

Hi folks,

	I've got a problem that I really hope that someone can help me with.

	First of all, the scenario:

		I presently live in Toronto, using skypod as a base computer.
My SO lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, using STMARYS as a base computer, which
is connected to Bitnet.

	The problem:

		I cannot figure out an address that she can write to that
will get mail to me.

		Right now, I'm attending Seneca college, and have tried to
send mail from there through uunet.uu.net to skypod, and it worked, quite
quickly I might add.  When she tries it, she gets an illegal address error
from her system.

	
	Now, what I'm wondering is if anyone out there knows of a simple
way of her sending mail directly, or of sending mail through a series
of computers.

	
	Finally, the only two facts that I know:

		1) she can write to me at Seneca.Bitnet, but my account
		   there is budgeted, so I can't afford to have her talking
		   to me there;
		2) she gets my mail no problem.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.
