[comp.org.ieee] Gateway between internet and IEEE Compmail

emery@aries.mitre.org (David Emery) (12/19/89)

Does anyone know how to send email between IEEE Compmail and the
internet?  Could you post the procedures (or email me a copy)?

To mail from Compmail to the Internet send (or forward) the mail to
user "INTERMAIL".  The first line of the message should be blank, the
next line should be "Forward: ARPA", The next line "To:
user@host.domain".  Start your message with another blank line.

That is:

	> mail intermail
	Subject: Test

	Forward: ARPA
	To: boykin@encore.com

	Test message.
	.send

To send from the internet to Compmail is similar.

	% mail intermail@isi.edu
	Subject: Test

	Forward: COMPMAIL
	To: J.BOYKIN

	Message
	.


Hope this helps.

I have successfully mail to the compmail net using the following scheme:

  As an internet address use:   intermail@isi.edu

  Leave at least one blank line and then include the following as the first part
of you mail --

     FORWARD: COMPMAIL
     TO:  <name of person>

Good Luck - The Computer Society catches grief every time we see them on this 
subject.

Another method is:

   mailbox%COMPMAIL@intermail.isi.edu

For example, my mailbox on COMPMAIL is IEE491, so:

   IEE491%COMPMAIL@intermail.isi.edu

would get to me.

Note: CAPS are not significant. I used them for emphasis.
