- This type of question is what the people on HELP-NET@VM.Temple.edu
- just *love* to answer. I've already replied privately.
-
- The general solution is to change:
- <user@node.bitnet>
-
- into:
- <user%node.bitnet@gateway>
-
- Note that the "@" becomes a "%", and "@gateway" is appended.
- As gateway for North America one can use "uga.cc.uga.edu", but there
- are a *lot* one can use... Your local helpdesk will probably know a
- more suitable one for the occasion. :-)
