Unfortunately, what you're asking for can't be done by a program at your
end. The problem is one (or both) of two things:
   1. itivax isn't set up to recognize chinet as a valid uucp host
   2. you're seeing a Usenet news path and assuming that a
      corresponding UUCP mail path exists. Usenet and UUCP aren't
      idempotent; you can't always assume that the route used by
      a news article will also work for UUCP mail, nor vice versa.
You'll probably wind up having to post a news article if you want to
get in touch with this person... Or send mail to itivax!postmaster
and get on their case to set up a real UUCP mail link to chinet...
