I am on the Internet, UUCP, and BITNET.  I need to routinely exchange
email with someone using PROFS at an IBM internal site.  I have his
user ID and node ID.  Is there a technique I can use or a gateway I can
employ to route mail between us him?  

We have tried one technique so far, without luck.  That is to run a 
program called EXTNET on his system to register him at the Internet
location IBM.COM.  (EXTNET does not seem to exist on his system.)

All leads appreciated.  (Sorry to ask a question that has probably been
answered many times before.)
