If one uses the form on page 207, just the internet address is sufficient.
The "form" appends the correct routing code to the end of the mail address.

If sending through other methods (such as the SEND command, Aladdins,
or mail command mode), you tack on the router yourself:  @INET#  -

So, my address would be   andy@homebase.vistachrome.com@inet#
