In the 2nd edition of "!%@:: A Directory of Electronic Mail Addressing and
Networks, May 1990, O'Reilly & Associates, Inc. the entry for:

AT&T Mail - Commercial Email Service (Page 44-45) states:

"AT&T Mail provides connections to ...., GEIS, ... and more."

GEIS in most contexts refers to General Electric Information Services...

Does this imply that either "Qwik-Mail" or GEnie are connected to ATTMail?

More importantly, is it true?? I know that AT&T has recently revealed
their Internet connection (who didn't know about that one??), but this
GEIS stuff sounds new/possibly bogus to me...
