Individuals throughout IBM are allowed to sign up (with their first
line manager's approval) to use a gateway in Tampa to get mail from
the internet.  You can try to send mail to rsnyder@boston.iinus1.ibm.com, 
or, for the MX deprived, rsnyder%boston@iinus1.ibm.com.  If that
doesn't work, then contact the individual by phone and encourage them
to sign up.  This, of course, doesn't address the issue of news
postings going out with unreachable addresses, which really shouldn't
be discussed in this newsgroup.  We have lazy news admins here within
IBM.  I know, cause I'm one.
