Susana,
 here is some information on a gateway in France providing access to IBM's
X.400 net IBMMAIL:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

There is an official gateway from EARN/Internet to IBMMail.
Read the documentation from NETSERV, i.e. the file IBMMAIL DESCRIPT
for example.

If an internet person knows the registered x.400 address (each IBMer
must have an IEA (inter enterprose address) and a set of x.400
attributes, then you can basically send from internet/EARN to

    GIVENNAME.SURNAME@ibmx400-COUNTRY.ibmmail.circe.fr

COUNTRY is the country code of the ibmer, surname is normally the
last name of the person, and givenname is a name given by mother
blue which is something like the first chars of the last name
followed by the initials but never longer than 7 chars.

Peter Sylvester (the one who installed the EARN part of the gateway).

Hope you know how to get information from your nearest NETSERV.

Greetings
