	We have a VAX750 running Wollongong TCP-IP.  When sending mail to
	the internet you do the following:

	mailer!<somebody@somewhere.arpa>
	
	What is want to know is how to set forward using the Wollongong
	mailer.  I have tried all kinds of quoting but it still dosen't
	work....

There is no way to do this.  The interface Wollongong uses is a hack, and
it only goes so far.  Neither forwarding nor logical name expansion can
produce a Wollongong-style Internet address, nor can such an address be
included in a distribution list.

You might want to pick up a copy of PMDF.  It provides an alternate interface
to the Wollongong software that allows all these things to work - and much
more besides.  The cost is nominal (something like $200).

As best I can recall, PMDF is available from Ned Freed, but I'm afraid I don't
know the net address you can write to.  If you have a CSNET contact, you
should be able to get the details there.
