A IBM mainframe which is on bitnet will soon be turned off. I would dearly like to find a way to forward any and all future mail destined for this bitnet host to an arbitrary Internet host. Sorta the bitnet analog of removing a host's A record and changing its MX to point to another host. I would think this would be easy, but a system programmer at the IBM host which is upstream RSCS'wise from the doomed bitnet host claims it aint so easy. At least on his IBM. While I eat sendmail.cf files for breakfast and configure bind for lunch, I am most ignorant about the ways and means of RSCS and the bitnet world. Any ideas? Ej
