UNIX talks acrross many different types of network.  Unfortuately VMS
does this very poorly.  While UUCP mail and DDN (ARPANET, etc..) and
several other mail systems are moving towards a unified approach to
addressing, it isn't there yet.  VMS would have exactly the same problem
if it were dealing with as a diverse environment as UNIX systems.
