Can someone out there explain to me how I might get mail
from a machine with only UUCP hookups to another machine
that is known to be on BITNET?  

If it helps, some of our immediate neighbors are ARPAnet
sites, and we could bounce things through them.  

For that matter, is there a good reference to teach all
about BITNET to a newcomer?  I keep hearing things about
it, but so far nothing very factual, and I'm curious.
