It sounds like you should be able to log in via GTE Telenet; call them at
800-336-0437 and explain that the number above is a X.25 address (2502 is the
data network identification code for IASNET and the rest is the NUA number).

Now a question to the readership of Info-nets: given an address like the above,
and a mailbox, can one send e-mail to it?

P.S. Alan, I'd appreciate a lot of you let me know if you find out anything
that you think is of interest. Thanks!!
