$ $How does a GEnie user address mail to another Internet site?
$ $Is there some prefix or special format that is used, or is
$ $the plain Internet address enough?
$ 
$ If one uses the form on page 207, just the internet address is sufficient.
$ The "form" appends the correct routing code to the end of the mail address.
$ 
$ If sending through other methods (such as the SEND command, Aladdins,
$ or mail command mode), you tack on the router yourself:  @INET#  -
$ 
$ So, my address would be   andy@homebase.vistachrome.com@inet#

And how about the other way?  From the Internet to a GEnie user.
