I must have hit on a popular subject because in less than 24 hours I received dozens of replies; however, only 4 people correctly noticed that I was inadvertantly leaving off the final "e" from compuserve in the address. To summarize: To send mail to people on CompuServe, if the person's CIS i.d. is 76543,210 you would address your message to 76543.210@compuserve.com To send mail from within CIS to someone on Internet you would append a >INTERNET: to the person's address; so to send mail to me address it to >INTERNET:chaim@eniac.seas.upenn.edu You currently can shorten the >INTERNET: to just >INET: but I've been informed that CIS will soon do away with that and require you to spell the word INTERNET out completely. Thanks again!! Chaim
