    Could anyone tell me the gateway to BNR at Carling in Ottawa?
    
    I was given the address as [email protected], so I tried with the
    VAXmail by sending my message to  NM%DECWRL::"[email protected]". 
    However,I get the err message as 
    
          "error creating network link to node DECWRL"
          "insufficient system resources at remote node".
    
    Since I am new in using Email or Nmail, I hope someone can help
    me out. Has anyone sent a Email to BNR?
    
    Thanks a lot ......

|     Hello.
    
    I have not sent mail to BNR, however I can tell you that I've heard
    that there are problems with DECWRL:: and that's why you can't get
    through via that route.
    
    Rumor has it that DECWRL was experiencing problems, and that is why the
    system is unreachable. But I can't see why you'd have problems with
    Nmail since it should have just queued the message. Hmmm...
    
    Best of luck, hope this is of some value to you.

|     The proper syntax for getting through to BNR Ottawa is
    DECWRL::"[email protected]". Your addressee must have a BNR VP approval
    to access the internal VAX.I have this on good authority from a friend
    of mine at BNR who has VP authority!
    
    Good Luck!

All of the above is correct.
I have just recently received confirmation from BNR via E-MAIL that I have
successfully established contact with the 'username' of interest.
