There is an Internet gateway. Whether or not your Bitnet connection
can get you there I don't know - try it.

The Fidonet user is addressed thusly:

User.Name@f1234.n1234.z1.FIDONET.ORG

where the numeric digits for the f, n, and z data are the Fidonet
node's Fidonet address.

I'm not sure what the Bintet user's return address looks like,
but if you can get to this gateway from Bitnet then I'd expect the
reply mail to work also.
