Thanks to all of you who responded with answers to my question
about how I can send mail to a CompuServe user.

Everyone had pretty much the same suggestion about changing the
commas in the CompuServe address to periods and tacking on 
"compuserve.com" on the end.

What I discovered, however, was that the mail was returned to me
when I did that.  For example, the following syntax caused the mail
to be returned with a "Your mail cannot be delivered as addressed"
message:

	xxxxx.yyyy@compuserve.com

However, when I changed the capitalization to the following, it worked:

	xxxxx.yyyy@CompuServe.COM

Weird, huh?

I'm able to send mail now using this CompServe syntax so I'm happy.
Thanks again to all who responded.

Tom Mathieu
