Hello,

     I'm assuming that this is the proper newsgroup to post this question
     so here goes:

     Does anyone in netland know if there is any existing documentation 
     that explains how the various e-mail systems work and how they can 
     or cannot "interface" with other e-mail systems (e.g. Internet -> 
     Bitnet, MCImail -> Internet, Bitnet -> MCImail, Internet -> Bix, 
     Internet -> Bmug, Internet -> Compuserve, and on and on)? 

     Basically, what I'm looking for is documention on e-mail addressing 
     and how/why it works between various systems.  The more technical 
     the better.  I hope this isn't asking too much.  Thanks in advance.
