5. Exchanging E-Mail between Internet and CompuServe
  
  CompuServe's electronic mail gateway to the Internet allows CompuServe
  subscribers to exchange mail with over 15 million Internet users, as well as
  other online services.
  
  The three types of CompuServe Mail addresses that can be reached from the
  Internet are as follows:
  
  a) Members of the CompuServe Information Service have an address (a.k.a. User
     ID) of the form "xxxxx,yyyy", such as "74906,1610".  To send mail to such
     an address from the Internet, change the comma to a period and attach
     "@CompuServe.com".  For instance:
  
          74906.1610@CompuServe.com
  
  b) Members of organizations with a private CompuServe Mail area have an
     address of the form "organization:name", such as "ABC:J.SMITH".  To send
     mail to such an address from the Internet, send it to
     "name@organization.CompuServe.com".  For instance:
  
          J.SMITH@ABC.CompuServe.com
  
     A few organizations also include a department in the form
     "organization:department:name", such as "ABC:ACCTG:JOHN".  To send mail to
     such an address, send to "name@department.organization.CompuServe.com". 
     For instance:
  
          JOHN@ACCTG.ABC.CompuServe.com
  
  c) Members of organizations whose LAN mail system is connected to the
     CompuServe Mail Hub can be reached as well.
  
     If they are connecting via Novell NetWare MHS, they have an address of the
     form "name@workgroup", such as "JSMITH@ABC".  To send mail to such an
     address from the Internet, send it to "name@workgroup.MHS.CompuServe.com".
     For instance:
  
  	JSMITH@ABC.MHS.CompuServe.com
  
     If they are connecting via Lotus Development Corp.'s cc:Mail, they have 
     an address of the form "user name at post_office", such as "JSMITH at ABC". 
     To send mail to such an address from the Internet, replace the "at" with
     the "@" and send it to "name@post_office.CCMAIL.CompuServe.com".  For
     instance:
  
  	JSMITH@ABC.CCMAIL.CompuServe.com
  
  
  Please note that a number of special destinations available to users of
  CompuServe Mail are NOT accessible from the Internet, including:
  
  	Facsimile Delivery              (e.g. FAX:)
          Postal Delivery                 (e.g. POSTAL:)
          Telex Delivery                  (e.g. TLX:)
          MCI Mail Delivery               (e.g. MCIMAIL:)
          Interconnected Public Service   (e.g. X400:)
  
  Finally, please realize that only CompuServe Mail users have access to our
  member directory.  Since there is no mechanism for you to obtain addresses
  directly from CompuServe Incorporated, you should obtain this information from
  the individuals with whom you wish to correspond.
