it's easy to get them to talk if your VMS vax also talks SMTP...We use
the Woolagong WIN/TCP which gives most TCP services (for a rather large
fee).

We also get unix mail to Decnet-only Vaxes by routing through an Ultrix
Vaxstation 2000.  Ultrix's mailer has a very nice interface between
Decnet mail and SMTP mail...

to get mail from your Suns you'd mail to :

	user%vax.dnet@ultrix

the .dnet tells Ultrix to use Decnet mail...
