461.0. "Wanted: student to visit USA summer of 1992" by SCARGO::CORMIER () Tue Jul 23 1991 19:54

    		I'm writing from Nashua, New Hampshire - U.S.A.
    
    Wanted:	Girl/student to visit the U.S.A. during the summer of 1992
    		from approximately June 15 through August 31, 1992; to
    		take care of our 3 daughters (ages 13, 11, 8). She
    		must be mature and speak English fairly well and her ideal 
    		age would be 17-21 years. Also must be a non-smoker.
    
    Situation:	I'm a Digital employee who works and lives in Nashua
    		New Hampshire, which is located about 45 minutes North
    		of Boston. My wife is a full-time college medical 
    		student who will be commuting to school daily during
    		most of the summer of 1992. Both my wife and I will be gone 
    		from 8:00 AM to 5:15pm daily, Monday through Friday. Our 
    		3 daughters are very well behaved and basically would take 
    		care of themselves, under the guidance of our visitor from 
    		Europe.  We have a 4 bedroom home in a very pleasant and safe
    		environment. The girl would have her own private bedroom.
    		We have a swimming pool in the back yard and a 4 bedroom
    		vacation home in the mountains, and we will be spending a 
    		week or so there during the summer.
    
    Arrangements:
    
    		Two years ago we hosted a girl from Paris and the financial
    		arrangements were as follows. The girl paid her round trip 
    		air fare from her home to Boston, and we paid for all other
    		expenses during her stay (with the exception of souvenirs
    		for her family back home). This arrangement seemed to work
    		out very well for both the girl and us.    
    
    If you know of someone who would like the opportunity to visit the
    United States next summer please send me mail at CGVAX2::CORMIER. 
    Please include any and all questions you'd like to ask.
    
    Thanks,

    Are you trying to reply via ALL-IN-1 mail?? If so you need to put and
    underscore (_) before the VAXmail address shown in the original Note. 
    If you using VAXmail already then you need to post the error message in
    order to help the 'panel' diagnose the problem.

461.5Try VMSmail from Notes.HAMPS::PATTISON_MThen, as if by magic, it crashed!Wed Jul 24 1991 17:4822
    If you are using the old notes interface enter
    
    Notes> send
    to: cgvax::cormier
    Subject: an answer
    
    enter message
    
    <Ctrl> Z
    
    This should send a VMS mail message.
    If you dont have a Notes> prompt there should still be some way of
    sending a mail message, find it and try it.

    P.S.
    Did you address it to _CAVAX2::CORMIER (what you say in .4)
    or _CGVAX2::CORMIER (which is what it says in .0)
