Most IBM employees can not receive mail from Internet, Bitnet or CSnet,
although certain IBM machines have connections to these networks. 
All outside traffic flows through gateway machines with security filters
which only recognize authorized accounts.  Unless your relatives work
in the IBM Research Division, they probably have no IBM access to the
Internet.
