No. A Fidonet address can be made up of 4 or 5 parts or "dimensions".

1:229/426.0 is a 4-part address. Zone 1, Net 229, Node 426 and Point zero.

1:229/426.0@fidonet is a 5-part address. The 5th part is the Fidonet domain, 
usually no more than 8 characters. It is usually not an Internet domain but 
a mutually-agreed upon domain between systems.

Explaining this further would likely be off-topic...
