To send mail from bitnet to uucp (usenet) requires special software in many
cases. (A large number of bitnet sites can only talk to other bitnet sites
unless special gateway software is used... I love IBM :-)

If there is someone in particular who cant get mail thru to you, get them
to send me a note (scott@utoronto.bitnet) and I might be able to help them
out. 

What is basically required is to send mail thru the gateway at psuvax1 which
will transfer their mail to uucp.
