Netfind is a nice service for finding email-addresses of people.

The following log should be self-explanatory (I hope)

The network command finger can be used to check things like this out,
though what it can accomplish depends on the remote system.

In this case finger Dickey@sfsuvax1.sfsu.edu returns:
