ACSNET
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
Australian Computer Science Network (ACSNET), also known as Oz, has its gateway
|
|
through the CSNET node munnari.oz.au and if you cannot directly mail to the
|
|
oz.au domain, try either username%munnari.oz.au@UUNET.UU.NET or
|
|
munnari!username@UUNET.UU.NET.

AT&T MAIL
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
AT&T Mail is a mailing service of AT&T, probably what you might call it's
|
|
MCI-Mail equivalent. It is available on the UUCP network as node name attmail
|
|
but I've had problems having mail get through. Apparently, it does cost money
|
|
to mail to this service and the surrounding nodes are not willing to pick up
|
|
the tab for the ingoing mail, or at least, this has seemingly been the case
|
|
thus far. I believe, though, that perhaps routing to att!attmail!user would
|
|
work.
|
|
|
|
AT&T recently announced six new X.400 interconnections between AT&T Mail and
|
|
electronic mail services in the U.S., Korea, Sweden, Australia, and Finland.
|
|
In the U.S., AT&T Mail is now interconnected with Telenet Communications
|
|
Corporation's service, Telemail, allowing users of both services to exchange
|
|
messages easily. With the addition of these interconnections, the AT&T Mail
|
|
Gateway 400 Service allows AT&T Mail subscribers to exchange messages with
|
|
users of the following electronic messaging systems:
|
|
|
|
Company E-Mail Name* Country
|
|
------- ------------ -------
|
|
TeleDelta TeDe 400 Sweden
|
|
OTC MPS400 Australia
|

|
|
Dialcom Dialcom USA
|
|
Telenet Telemail USA
|
|
KDD Messavia Japan
|
|
Transpac ATLAS400 France
|
|
|
|
The interconnections are based on the X.400 standard, a set of guidelines for
|
|
the format, delivery and receipt of electronic messages recommended by an
|
|
international standards committee the CCITT. International X.400 messages
|
|
incur a surcharge. They are:
|
|
|
|
To Canada:
|
|
Per note: $.05
|
|
Per message unit: $.10
|
|
|
|
To other international locations:
|
|
Per note: $.20
|
|
Per message unit: $.50
|
|
|
|
There is no surcharge for X.400 messages within the U.S. The following are
|
|
contacts to speak with about mailing through these mentioned networks. Other
|
|
questions can be directed through AT&T Mail's toll-free number, 1-800-624-5672.

CMR
|
|
~~~
|
|
Previously known as Intermail, the Commercial Mail Relay (CMR) Service is a
|
|
mail relay service between the Internet and three commercial electronic mail
|
|
systems: US Sprint/Telenet, MCI-Mail, and DIALCOM systems (i.e. Compmail,
|
|
NSFMAIL, and USDA-MAIL).
|
|
|
|
An important note: The only requirement for using this mail gateway is that
|
|
the work conducted must be DARPA sponsored research and other approved
|
|
government business. Basically, this means that unless you've got some
|
|
government-related business, you're not supposed to be using this gateway.
|
|
Regardless, it would be very difficult for them to screen everything that goes
|
|
through their gateway. Before I understood the requirements of this gateway, I
|
|
was sending to a user of MCI-Mail and was not contacted about any problems with
|
|
that communication. Unfortunately, I mistyped the MCI-Mail address on one of
|
|
the letters and that letter ended up getting read by system administrators who
|
|
then informed me that I was not to be using that system, as well as the fact
|
|
that they would like to bill me for using it. That was an interesting thought
|
|
on their part anyway, but do note that using this service does incur charges.
|
|
|
|
The CMR mailbox address in each system corresponds to the label:
|
|
|
|
Telemail: [Intermail/USCISI]TELEMAIL/USA
|
|
MCI-Mail: Intermail or 107-8239
|
|
CompMail: Intermail or CMP0817
|
|
NSF-Mail: Intermail or NSF153
|
|
USDA-Mail: Intermail or AGS9999
|
|
|
|
Addressing examples for each e-mail system are as follows:
|
|
|
|
MCIMAIL:
|
|
123-4567 seven digit address
|
|
Everett T. Bowens person's name (must be unique!)
|
|
|
|
COMPMAIL:
|
|
CMP0123 three letters followed by three or four digits
|
|
S.Cooper initial, then "." and then last name
|
|
134:CMP0123 domain, then ":" and then combination system and
|
|
account number
|
|
|
|
NSFMAIL:
|
|
NSF0123 three letters followed by three or four digits
|
|
A.Phillips initial, then "." and then last name
|
|
157:NSF0123 domain, then ":" and then combination system and
|
|

|
|
|
|
USDAMAIL:
|
|
AGS0123 three letters followed by three or four digits
|
|
P.Shifter initial, then "." and then last name
|
|
157:AGS0123 domain, then ":" and then combination system and
|
|

|
|
|
|
TELEMAIL:
|
|
BARNOC user (directly on Telemail)
|
|
BARNOC/LODH user/organization (directly on Telemail)
|
|
[BARNOC/LODH]TELEMAIL/USA
|
|

NOTE: You can also mail to username@NASAMAIL.NASA.GOV or
|
|
username@GSFCMAIL.NASA.GOV instead of going through the CMR gateway to
|
|
mail to NASAMAIL or GSFCMAIL.
|
|
|
|
For more information and instructions on how to use CMR, send a message to the
|
|
user support group at intermail-request@intermail.isi.edu (you'll get basically
|
|
what I've listed plus maybe a bit more). Please read Chapter 3 of The Future
|
|
Transcendent Saga (Limbo to Infinity) for specifics on mailing to these
|
|
destination mailing systems.
|
|
|
|
COMPUSERVE
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
CompuServe is well known for its games and conferences. It does, though, have
|
|
mailing capability. Now, they have developed their own Internet domain, called
|
|
COMPUSERVE.COM. It is relatively new and mail can be routed through either
|
|
TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU or NORTHWESTERN.ARPA.
|
|
|
|
Example: user%COMPUSERVE.COM@TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU or replace
|
|
TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU with NORTHWESTERN.ARPA).
|
|
|
|
The CompuServe link appears to be a polled UUCP connection at the gateway
|
|
machine. It is actually managed via a set of shell scripts and a comm utility
|
|
called xcomm, which operates via command scripts built on the fly by the shell
|
|
scripts during analysis of what jobs exist to go into and out of CompuServe.
|
|
|
|
CompuServe subscriber accounts of the form 7xxxx,yyyy can be addressed as
|
|
7xxxx.yyyy@compuserve.com. CompuServe employees can be addressed by their
|
|
usernames in the csi.compuserve.com subdomain. CIS subscribers write mail to
|
|
">inet:user@host.domain" to mail to users on the Wide-Area Networks, where
|
|
">gateway:" is CompuServe's internal gateway access syntax. The gateway
|
|
generates fully-RFC-compliant headers.
|
|
|
|
To fully extrapolate -- from the CompuServe side, you would use their EasyPlex
|
|
mail system to send mail to someone in BITNET or the Internet. For example,
|
|
to send me mail at my Bitnet id, you would address it to:
|
|
|
|
INET:C488869%UMCVMB.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU
|
|
|
|
Or to my Internet id:
|
|
|
|
INET:C488869@UMCVMB.MISSOURI.EDU
|
|
|
|
Now, if you have a BITNET to Internet userid, this is a silly thing to do,
|
|
since your connect time to CompuServe costs you money. However, you can use
|
|
this information to let people on CompuServe contact YOU. CompuServe Customer
|
|
Service says that there is no charge to either receive or send a message to the
|
|
Internet or BITNET.
|
|
|
|
DASNET
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
DASnet is a smaller network that connects to the Wide-Area Networks but charges
|
|
for their service. DASnet subscribers get charged for both mail to users on
|
|
other networks AND mail for them from users of other networks. The following
|
|
is a brief description of DASnet, some of which was taken from their
|
|
promotional text letter.
|
|
|
|
DASnet allows you to exchange electronic mail with people on more than 20
|
|
systems and networks that are interconnected with DASnet. One of the
|
|
drawbacks, though, is that, after being subscribed to these services, you must
|
|
then subscribe to DASnet, which is a separate cost. Members of Wide-Area
|
|
networks can subscribe to DASnet too. Some of the networks and systems
|
|
reachable through DASnet include the following:
|
|
|
|
ABA/net, ATT Mail, BIX (Byte Information eXchange), DASnet Network,
|
|
Dialcom, EIES, EasyLink, Envoy 100, FAX, GeoMail, INET, MCI Mail, NWI,
|
|
PeaceNet/EcoNet, Portal Communications, The Meta Network, The Source,
|
|
Telemail, ATI's Telemail (Japan), Telex, TWICS (Japan), UNISON, UUCP, The
|
|
WELL, and Domains (i.e. ".COM" and ".EDU" etc.). New systems are added
|
|
all of the time. As of the writing of this file, Connect, GoverNET,
|
|
MacNET, and The American Institute of Physics PI-MAIL are soon to be
|
|
connected.
|
|
|
|
You can get various accounts on DASnet including:
|
|
|
|
o Corporate Accounts -- If your organization wants more than one individual
|
|
subscription.
|
|
o Site Subscriptions -- If you want DASnet to link directly to your
|
|
organization's electronic mail system.
|
|
|
|
To send e-mail through DASnet, you send the message to the DASnet account on
|
|
your home system. You receive e-mail at your mailbox, as you do now. On the
|
|
Wide-Area Networks, you send mail to XB.DAS@STANFORD.BITNET. On the Subject:
|
|
line, you type the DASnet address in brackets and then the username just
|
|
outside of them. The real subject can be expressed after the username
|
|
separated by a "!" (Example: Subject: [0756TK]randy!How's Phrack?).
|
|
|
|
The only disadvantage of using DASnet as opposed to Wide-Area networks is the
|
|
cost. Subscription costs as of 3/3/89 cost $4.75 per month or $5.75 per month
|
|
for hosts that are outside of the U.S.A.
|
|
|
|
You are also charged for each message that you send. If you are corresponding
|
|
with someone who is not a DASnet subscriber, THEIR MAIL TO YOU is billed to
|
|
your account.
|
|
|
|

Subscribers to DASnet get a free DASnet Network Directory as well as a listing
|
|
in the directory, and the ability to order optional DASnet services like
|
|
auto-porting or DASnet Telex Service which gives you your own Telex number and

answerback for $8.40 a month at this time.

NOTE: You can also mail to username@NASAMAIL.NASA.GOV or
|
|
username@GSFCMAIL.NASA.GOV instead of going through the CMR gateway to
|
|
mail to NASAMAIL or GSFCMAIL.
|
|
|
|
For more information and instructions on how to use CMR, send a message to the
|
|
user support group at intermail-request@intermail.isi.edu (you'll get basically
|
|
what I've listed plus maybe a bit more). Please read Chapter 3 of The Future
|
|
Transcendent Saga (Limbo to Infinity) for specifics on mailing to these
|
|
destination mailing systems.

COMPUSERVE
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
CompuServe is well known for its games and conferences. It does, though, have
|
|
mailing capability. Now, they have developed their own Internet domain, called
|
|
COMPUSERVE.COM. It is relatively new and mail can be routed through either
|
|
TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU or NORTHWESTERN.ARPA.
|
|
|
|
Example: user%COMPUSERVE.COM@TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU or replace
|
|
TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU with NORTHWESTERN.ARPA).
|
|
|
|
The CompuServe link appears to be a polled UUCP connection at the gateway
|
|
machine. It is actually managed via a set of shell scripts and a comm utility
|
|
called xcomm, which operates via command scripts built on the fly by the shell
|
|
scripts during analysis of what jobs exist to go into and out of CompuServe.
|
|
|
|
CompuServe subscriber accounts of the form 7xxxx,yyyy can be addressed as
|
|
7xxxx.yyyy@compuserve.com. CompuServe employees can be addressed by their
|
|
usernames in the csi.compuserve.com subdomain. CIS subscribers write mail to
|
|
">inet:user@host.domain" to mail to users on the Wide-Area Networks, where
|
|
">gateway:" is CompuServe's internal gateway access syntax. The gateway
|
|
generates fully-RFC-compliant headers.
|
|
|
|
To fully extrapolate -- from the CompuServe side, you would use their EasyPlex
|
|
mail system to send mail to someone in BITNET or the Internet. For example,
|
|
to send me mail at my Bitnet id, you would address it to:
|
|
|
|
INET:C488869%UMCVMB.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU
|
|
|
|
Or to my Internet id:
|
|
|
|
INET:C488869@UMCVMB.MISSOURI.EDU
|
|
|
|
Now, if you have a BITNET to Internet userid, this is a silly thing to do,
|
|
since your connect time to CompuServe costs you money. However, you can use
|
|
this information to let people on CompuServe contact YOU. CompuServe Customer
|
|
Service says that there is no charge to either receive or send a message to the
|
|
Internet or BITNET.
|
|
|
|
DASNET
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
DASnet is a smaller network that connects to the Wide-Area Networks but charges
|
|
for their service. DASnet subscribers get charged for both mail to users on
|
|
other networks AND mail for them from users of other networks. The following
|
|
is a brief description of DASnet, some of which was taken from their
|
|
promotional text letter.
|
|
|
|
DASnet allows you to exchange electronic mail with people on more than 20
|
|
systems and networks that are interconnected with DASnet. One of the
|
|
drawbacks, though, is that, after being subscribed to these services, you must
|
|
then subscribe to DASnet, which is a separate cost. Members of Wide-Area
|
|
networks can subscribe to DASnet too. Some of the networks and systems
|
|
reachable through DASnet include the following:
|
|
|
|
ABA/net, ATT Mail, BIX (Byte Information eXchange), DASnet Network,
|
|
Dialcom, EIES, EasyLink, Envoy 100, FAX, GeoMail, INET, MCI Mail, NWI,
|
|
PeaceNet/EcoNet, Portal Communications, The Meta Network, The Source,
|
|
Telemail, ATI's Telemail (Japan), Telex, TWICS (Japan), UNISON, UUCP, The
|
|
WELL, and Domains (i.e. ".COM" and ".EDU" etc.). New systems are added
|
|
all of the time. As of the writing of this file, Connect, GoverNET,
|
|
MacNET, and The American Institute of Physics PI-MAIL are soon to be
|
|
connected.
|
|
|
|
You can get various accounts on DASnet including:
|
|
|
|
o Corporate Accounts -- If your organization wants more than one individual
|
|
subscription.
|
|
o Site Subscriptions -- If you want DASnet to link directly to your
|
|
