Our primary mailer is All-in-1-mail.  However, we also have
VMSMail running.  The VMSMail is used primarily for on-site
mail.  

I'd like to use the DELIVER utility with A1Mail, but I've found
that pretty much impossible.  It does work with VMSMail.

I've tried 'forwarding' my A1Mail to VMSMail by setting my
forward address in A1Mail to a DECNet address.  This works,
but, most of the mail is lost, and the mail that does happen
to be delivered takes hours longer.  Example:  I sent myself
mail to test this out, and it took 2 hours for it to arrive
in VMSmail.

Is there an easy way (or anyway period) to 'forward' A1mail
to VMSMail and not have it get lost somewhere?  Or, am what

Or, is what I'm trying to do pretty much impractical?
