I don't know of any free gateway connections but the commercial attmail
service offers a connection to uucp machines and gateways to telex
(bi-directional, you get a telex number to receive messages which are
delivered to user "telex" on your machine).  Addressing is straightforward
uucp syntax: attmail!telex!number.  They also deliver to fax machines.
Compared to uunet, the subscription cost is low, the per-message cost is high.
