- Truth to tell, I've had replies to Grant (Bluemoon's owner/sysop/
- admin/whatever), replying directly to mail sent from Bluemoon get
- bounced and eventually killed (undelivered) by one of the uucp daemons
- because a connection was never made.

- If the original poster just needs to keep up USENet mail, I know it's
- possible to send messages back and forth between FIDO and Usenet
- (every FIDOnet address has a USENet address with '.fidonet.org'
- appended). The two boards I'm SURE you can get FIDO access at are
- Computrek BBS (a pay board running with multiple lines under The Major
- BBS, offering many services unavailable to smaller boards) and Hangar
- 18 BBS (a free board running Wildcat! BBS at 448-2314 as I recall).
