	To my understanding, Novell did not give all users browse rights to
the everything in the NDS database.  Just the name and a few things
like that which you can pick up with an "ndir".  So David Harris (who
writes Pegasus and Mercury) had to go a different route.  I can't say
that I have a definite solution to your problem but have you tried
aliasing the full context name plus the Internet domain?  Eg:
ajsmith.cc.fstaff.onunet@lynx.olivet.edu

	If that doesn't work then you might try the Pegasus listserv which is
also on NNTP at bit.listserv.pmail

	Best of luck.
Andrew
