Using your domain address, there should be no problem.  WATERLOO.EDU is
a valid BITNET domain.  Assuming that the mailer at QUCDN is properly
configured, your friend should be able to send to you directly on BITNET
using the address MIKE@WATCSC.WATERLOO.EDU.  The BITNET mail goes to
MAILER@WATER.BITNET, which sends it on to you.

Another route would be via the Internet, and again your domain address
mike@watcsc.waterloo.edu should be sufficient.  Some BITNET mailers
still don't handle MX records however, so it may be necessary to use the
address mike%watcsc.waterloo.edu@maytag.waterloo.edu.
