Message-ID: <503@pucc-i> Date: Sat, 22-Sep-84 14:25:22 EDT Article-I.D.: pucc-i.503 Posted: Sat Sep 22 14:25:22 1984 Date-Received: Wed, 26-Sep-84 05:41:15 EDT Organization: Bozo Squad Headquarters Lines: 42Since I posted my request for UUCP/BITNET gateways some time ago, I have accumulated some information, which is listed below: Apparently, two gateway sites exist for this purpose. The UUCP site at Penn State University (psuvax1) and another site (wjh12) operate gateways. The impression I get is that one can mail thru psuvax1 in the following manner: . . . !psuvax1!bituser%bitsite.BITNET The wjh12 site is just in the process of installing their BITNET mailer. They have two possible formats for mailing; you may want to try first .. . !wjh12!BITSITE!bituser Please notice that the BITNET sitename is REQUIRED to be in upper case. In a few weeks, you should be able to mail like the following: . . . !wjh12!bituser@BITSITE.BITNET Since the "@" often causes trouble with mailers which your message may have to pass through, you can simply mail a letter to . . . !wjh12!mailer, and include a "To: bituser@BITSITE.BITNET" in the letter. Until their mailer is functioning entirely (when you can use the second and third formats), there will not be a return path generated in the message sent to the bitnet user (i.e., there will be no "Return-Path: " line. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Henry C.
