Hi,
   I have been trying for some time to get mail to Dialcom in the UK.
I have been told by people in the UK that I need to send to an address
something like the following:

"/G=10087/S=CQQ061/O=Gateway to Gold/ADMD=Interspan/C=GB/"@uk.ac.mhs-relay

This all makes sense except for one problem.  The spaces in 'Gateway to Gold'!
The mailers I use assume that the first space is the end of the address.

Has anyone used this type of address?  Is this a valid Internet address?
Is there another way into Dialcom?

Thanks,
--
