A few weeks ago, I posted the following query:

>Okay, I know this probably was posted when I was asleep but
>can somebody tell me how to get to Bitnet?  More specifically,
>to the node "uoguelph".

Below is a digest of the responses I've received.  They have been
edited slightly for space and "to protect the innocent" :-).

Note that I have not verified *all* the paths listed below.  I *have*
used the watmath!water!site.bitnet path successfully for outgoing mail
and utgpu!ai.toronto.edu!uoguelph.bitnet for incoming mail.

Thank's to everyone who responded.

--------------
Try sending it to utgpu!bitnetsite!person
I use "utgpu!utorphys!<user>" to get to <user>@utorphys.bitnet
--------------
Try something like...  watmath!water!uoguelph.bitnet!user
--------------
i believe various local machines have bitnet access,
i use my neighbour, yetti	ie.	yetti!user@bitnet-node

the gotcha?	 8 characters each only please.	^^       ^^
--------------
Send it to utgpu!uoguelph.bitnet!user
--------------
Path to .bitnet:  ...!harvard!gymble!super!site.bitnet!user
Path to .bitnet:  ...!rutgers!psuvax1!site.bitnet!user
...
You should be able to get to users at uoguelph by sending to
"user%uoguelph.bitnet@uunet".
