  Ah, that's easy. Assuming, of course, that you want to send something 
from Internet to fidonet.
  Just send to <person>@f<point-number>.n<node-number>.z<zone-number>.fido.org, where <person> is the full name of the intended reciever (as he/she/it would
log onto the intended BBS - yours is john.hall).
  The rest is from the familiar <zone-number>:<node-number>/<point-number>
code, so your Fido address is 3:680/805.

  Simplicity itself!
