[comp.unix.aix] email into ibm

monson@diablo.amd.com (Steve Monson) (10/04/90)

All you friendly and mail-knowledgeable IBMers there:

I no longer work at IBM, but would like to send some email to someone
there. If I want to send email to CMS user "WHO" on machine "WHERE", can I
send it to

cs.utexas.edu!ibmchs!auschs!ausvme!WHERE!WHO

or is there a more convoluted way to get there? And if you can answer that,
can you also say how they can reply, using CMS's SENDNOTE command? I very
much doubt they have access to an AIX machine.

Thanks (I hope)

 To an increasing degree, you can send mail to
 who@where.iinus1.ibm.com.  This is now available to almost all IBM
 employees (the employee has to wish to do it and the manager has to
 approve).  
  
 The employee can in turn respond using inote monson@diablo.amd.com.
                                
I still rely on a courtesy account at the University for notes reading,
though.
