Sending mail to someone on vnet can be difficult.  First, the person
on the vnet side must open a path for you.  Then you can send files.
From anywhere on BITNET you can reach VNET, the routine tables will
take care of that.  I've noticed that you are in Sweden.  I believe
that earnet has a direct tiein to BITNET, but am not certain.
