To send mail to a compuserve user is easy.  Just get their account number, which will be of the form:

   yyyyyy,xxxx (x & y some numbers)

change it into:

    yyyyyy.xxxx ( . instead of ,)

and address as:

    yyyyyy.xxxx@compuserve.com



I know that this gets mail to compuserve (I have friends there), but I have no idea what they have to do on their end to read it.


Hope this helps,
   Matthion
