I am sure this has been asked before, but I've never had the need before. Back to the point...is there a gateway to Zmac?? I would like to be able to e-mail some friends there.

Despite the fact that you're from GW, I'll help. :-) (Went there, for a few
years; check the records...me 'n' them, we didn't get along so great...)
ZMAC is Ziff-Davis Publishing's area on CompuServe. It serves those interested
in MacWEEK- and MacUser-related information. Since it's on CIS, everyone there
should have a CIS user ID. Get your friends' CIS user ID #s, then mail them
at:
user.ID@compuserve.com
where user.ID is the same number as the CIS ID, except where the CIS ID is separated
by a comma, you need to separate it with a period. I'm 70721,504 on CIS, so
you'd mail me at 70721.504@compuserve.com.

To do so, replace the comma in the CIS address (i.e., 7xxxx,yyy) with a period and then add @compuserve.com. The result will be 7xxxx.yyy@compuserve.com. John -- John A.
