network addresses????

How do you figure out these network mailing addresses?  I have tried
to reply to several postings by mail but don't seem to have had much
luck.  When I call up mail I will get a header with a 'to' address
something like 'someone@somewhere.some.place'.  The mailer doesn't
like this at all and is fairly quick to reject it.  I did find out
that I have to add 'uunet' someplace in the address, and that I
probably have to remove the '@' and rearrange things a bit.  Our
system administrator doesn't know any more and doesn't have time to
check it out.  Could someone please shed some light on this mystery of
the ages?

Thanks,
	John Snow
