The IBM VNET is now accessible from the Internet via domain "iinus1.ibm.com".
So your friend's address would be "userid@sjmvm2.iinus1.ibm.com".

BUT ... only registered users within IBM can use the gateway, so unless
your friend has registered you can't get to her.  Any manager can register
her employees in a trivial overnight process, so that shouldn't stop your
friend for long.
