Mailboxes can be reached either by embedding the TELENET address in an RFC822 (Internet) address or using a Simple Forwarding Header (SFH) in the body of a message sent to Intermail@Intermail.ISI.EDU. In the Internet address: "[username/OMNET]MAIL/USA%TELEMAIL"@Intermail.ISI.EDU [**NOTE: Square brackets *should* be acceptable in an Internet address but many mailers, especially BITNET relays, don't like them there. The work around is to quote the user part as above.**] A SFH (remember, send the message to Intermail@Intermail.ISI.EDU): Forward: TELEMAIL To: [username/OMNET]MAIL/USA "TELEMAIL" is the name of the TELENET host to which the CMR actually connects. For complete instructions on using the CMR bridge to TELENET, send a message to: Intermail-Request@Intermail.ISI.EDU Hope this helps. Craig E.
