Mail to, say, user 70000,0000 on CompuServe can be sent to
70000.0000@compuserve.com.  Note that the comma is replaced by a dot.

Mail to MCI Mail users can be to their userid number, name, or any of
several similar possibilities.  If you send it to a name and it's
ambiguous, then MCI Mail will send you back a list of possibilities.
The best way is to send mail to their userid number, however; if they're
123-4567, you can send mail to 0001234567@mcimail.com.

In either case, since the userids are usually not very mnemonic, you may
want them to sent you email to generate a reply address first.

Mail from these systems to the Internet is sent in the following ways:

From CompuServe:

Mail to ">INTERNET:user@host.dom.ain" (yes, the > is significant).

From MCI Mail:

At the To: prompt, type the recipient's full name, followed by "(ems)"
At the EMS: prompt, type "internet"
At the MBX: prompt, type "user@host.dom.ain"

For example:

CIS to me: >INTERNET:ckd@eff.org

MCI Mail to me:

To: Chris Davis (ems)
EMS: internet
MBX: ckd@eff.org
