[news.newusers.questions] E-mail gateways

alberto@yamuna.cs.umd.edu (Jose Alberto Fernandez R) (02/09/90)

I'm not sure if you can help me in this but anyway.

I'm trying to find a way to send e-mail from an INTERNET node to the
MCI and COMPUSERV e-mail services. Do you know the addresses or any
gateway that can be used to access this e-mail services?

I know that it is possible at least to connect to Compuserv, but not
how to do it.

I appreciate any informaytion or pointers.

	Jose Alberto.

------------------------

I'm able to write to a friend at CompuServe simple by addressing mail
to his account number at (@) CompuServe.com (using a period in place
of the usual comma).  So, for example, if you wanted to get in touch
with account 71234,5678 you would address mail to

			71234.5678@CompuServe.com

(I don't know if case is important)

Hope this helps.

Tom
