Apparently it is finally possible to send Email between Internet
and Genie finally.  It would seem that this could be quite helpful
to Forthnet since most of us have access to one or the other.
But I haven't seen mention of it on Forthnet yet.  Can a Genie
user elaborate?

As I understand it, from Internet one sends mail to
<user>@geis.genie.com      My one attempt so far has failed.
Apparently the Genie user must subscribe to the additional
fee gateway service.  Does mail to Genie users without the
additional subscription  really get discarded without notice
to either the sender or the intended receiver as my test
seemed to indicate?  BTW how much additional does it cost?
