I am interested in general information about MCI mail and ATT Mail.
I have Usenet access, as you can see, but family and friends in the
U.S. do not.   It would be nice to exchange e-mail with them from
Europe.  It would be possible for me to directly subscribe to ATT or MCI
mail but I would prefer some kind of gateway between Usenet and these
other nets, so that I do not have to check another e-mail "box" each
morning.    Does DA Systems offer this kind of service?   Can subscribers
to MCI or ATT mail send me mail without requiring that I have a 
subscription to one of these services?   What does DA Systems charge 
for their service, and who pays -- the person sending mail or the 
person receiving, or both?     

Are there other solutions available?   Is DA Systems the only company
offering this kind of service?   Can anyone tell me how to get in 
contact with MCI or ATT to obtain more information about their e-mail
services?

Thanks for your help.
