- At the beginning of August I asked the question
-
- "How do I transfer mail between my Internet account and an AT&T
- EasyLink (Instant Mail Service) account?"
-
- Thanks to the following people for their help:
-
- Mark Jackson (mjackson@attmail.com)
- Alan Toscano (atoscano@attmail.com)
- Michel Perdreau (mperdrea@oucsace.cs.ohiou.edu)
- David A. Roth (david@roth-music.com)
-
- The answer is:
-
- To send mail from Internet to EasyLink IMS, use the address
- 62xxxxxx@eln.attmail.com
- To send mail from EasyLink to Internet, use the address
- IPM
- PRIMARY
- COUNTRY US
- ADMD ATTMAIL
- ORG UUCP
- DDA ID-INTERNET!!SYDNEY.TPS.COM!!DAVIDS
- END+
-
- Internet to EasyLink works as advertised. I have not verified EasyLink
- to Internet yet. Note that in the DDA line, ! is used to escape
- lowercase letters. !! is used for a single ! in the address. Thus,
- if my username had to be in lowercase, the line would be
- DDA ID-INTERNET!!SYDNEY.TPS.COM!!!D!A!V!I!D!S
