Thanks to all of you who responded with answers to my question about how I can send mail to a CompuServe user. Everyone had pretty much the same suggestion about changing the commas in the CompuServe address to periods and tacking on "compuserve.com" on the end. What I discovered, however, was that the mail was returned to me when I did that. For example, the following syntax caused the mail to be returned with a "Your mail cannot be delivered as addressed" message: xxxxx.yyyy@compuserve.com However, when I changed the capitalization to the following, it worked: xxxxx.yyyy@CompuServe.COM Weird, huh? I'm able to send mail now using this CompServe syntax so I'm happy. Thanks again to all who responded. Tom Mathieu
