Is there an Internet to AppleLink gateway? I don't have an AppleLink account any more, but would like to be able to send email to people at Apple who don't have Internet access. Mark Turner mark@hpdtc.hp.com

You send to <Applelink@>@Applelink.Apple.com (i.e. to send to me, you'd send to "DAWSON.M@Applelink.Apple.com").

Thanks to Blayne, Juha, Maurice, Laurie, Les and everyone else for your prompt answers to my question about the Internet-AppleLink gateway. My mailbox is overflowing! In case anyone else was wondering, you can reach AppleLink users at: user@applelink.apple.com Couldn't be much easier than that! Mark Turner mark@hpdtc.hp.com

Is Applelink compatible with Internet mail system? I don't think address is hard but is there some characters dropped in transfer? (current [CB]news kills escape and the Japanese and others are using patched [CB]news, for example). I've never mailed to outworld so I'm curious. Is it RFC compliant? And another question. How can one get Applelink? Do you have to be a developper? What's the merit? What's the catch? Thanx in advance. Dan Kogai (dankg@ocf.berkeley.edu)
