I'm a student at Southeastern Louisiana University and need to know if
there is a way for me to find out the E-Mail address of someone at U of W
or any other University using Pine.  If you could send me some information
on this it would be great.  If that is not possible could someone send me
Tara McFadden's address.  Thanks a lot.  

					Yours Confused,

						Southeastern Louisiana U.

P.S.    GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Generally, if a university supplying email to students has a directory of
email addresses, it is easily accessible from that school's web site. WU
has such a directory, and I was able to locate the person you were
seraching for. I'll pass her info along via email, since it's not relevant
to the list. 

Aside from the webpages of the universities themselves, there are email
directory services such as those housed at <http://www.four11.com>,
<http://www.whowhere.com>, <http://www.switchboard.com>, and others.
Yahoo! can be an excellent resource for finding the homepage of a certain
school when you are having difficulties. 

For example, Central Michigan University, which is commonly referred to as
CMU, would logically be located at <http://www.cmu.edu> - this is not the
case, however.  Carnegia-Mellon University is at <http://www.cmu.edu>, and
Central Michigan University is at <http://www.cmich.edu>. 

Good luck in future searches,
