Certainly one can send mail to/from the Internet and Fidonet but 
I don't know of any connections to RIME.
 
A somewhat more general version of this question was recently 
asked and answered in comp.dcom.telecom. I've summarized the 
answers below. The Yanoff list (described below) was itself 
posted to comp.dcom.telecom as well.

Use anonymous ftp and connect to csd4.csd.uwm.edu.  Scott Yanoff has
collected many different inter-service formats into a document called
internetwork-mail-guide in the directory /pub.

Scott also creates the excellent "SPECIAL INTERNET CONNECTIONS" list
(inet.services.txt in the same directory) which he updates every two
weeks.  It's a great resource for finding stuff on the 'net.  The
latest is 8/2/93.

Finger yanoff@csd4.csd.uwm.edu for further information.

There are two lists that I know of.

The first one is maintained by Scott Yanoff (yanoff@csd4.csd.uwm.edu)
and is posted at least once a month to the folling newsgroups:

  comp.mail.misc, alt.bbs.lists, alt.internet.services, comp.misc,
  news.answers

The subject heading is:

  Subject: Updated Inter-Network Mail Guide

The second list is the "Internet Mailing Guide" maintained by Ajay
Shekhawat (ajay@cs.Buffalo.EDU).  The latest version I have is dated
04/15/1992 (Version 1.2).

For instructions on sending email between various commercial services
(i.e. how to get the addressing syntax right), see David Strom's
article, "How to Make E-Mail Gateways Work," Network Computing,
January 1992, p. 83 and 86.
