I'm sure this type of question has been addressed a zillion times here,
but here goes :

I have an associate who works at Queens university Canada, who has an account
on one of the IBM mainframes there (Sitename : 'qucdn' running VM/CMS) which 
is on the BITNET.  I would like to exchange mail.

I have no problem sending mail, I am using a unix machine with a uucp
connection, and address all my mail to

			..!uunet!qucdn.bitnet!USER_NAME

where USER_NAME is the name of my associate.  My mail arrives at 'qucdn'.

My associate on the other hand has difficulties sending mail from 'qucdn'
to my site.  Several paths have been tried, one of which is :

			watmath!watcsc!mike@uunet.UU.NET

All mail sent to this path is returned un-delivered.  

What path should be used to send mail from 'qucdn' on the BITNET
to ..!uunet!watmath!watcsc!mike ??

	Any replies would be appreciated, mail can be sent to :

		..!uunet!watmath!watcsc!mike
