 HusTler>> Please send me email if you're still having trouble. I'm sure it can be e

 HusTler>> hustler@havens.synchro.net

 Baguteer> Riiiiight. Email you /where/?

that depends on the definition of "where"... if you're talking about the destination system, his email address is in all of his messages as seen above... if you're talking about some location in some software, we need to know which software you're trying to use to send said email...

 Baguette> I've tried every address I can think of,

why would you try using any address other than the one above?

 Baguette> and I always get a message from the mail system saying I can't.

this goes back to which software you're using... if you're writting the message in thunderbird, for instance, the (bounce?) message you get back should tell you/us exactly why the message cannot be delivered... if you're entering the address in the wrong format on some BBS software that expects a certain format in a certain menu option, we can also help with that...

for example, some software expects the name in one field and the destination domain/address in another field... other software expects it all in one field but you have to use the correct menu option... it really depends on the software you are interfacing with...

on my old remoteaccess FTN system, you had to put the name@domain in one field and a FNT gateway address in another... if the name@domain wouldn't fit in the field because it was too long, you had to put "UUCP" in the field, the gateway address in another field and then the very first line of the message had to be a proper "To: user@domain" line followed by a blank line and then the message body...

software has come a long way, though, and some wants the same basic format as "user@address" where 'address' is a QWK system name, a FTN address, or an internet domain but you have to be using the right menu option...
