I understand that there is a gateway operating.  I don't know how to get email
from bix to internet, but to get from internet to bix, try the following:

	user@dcibix.das.net

The bad news is that DASnet is a commercial gateway service, and someone has
to pay for it.  I understand that bix subscribers can ask for the service,
and can be charged for it by Byte Magazine who in turn pay DASnet.

For more information, check out the "Inter-Network Mail Guide".  I don't have
a publisher or author.
