[net.micro.cpm] Mailing Software

With all of the wizzards out there, there aught to be
a demon that accepts mail with a path/filename in it.
This demon takes the path/filename, goes into the simtel20
archive, gets the file, encodes it, and mails it back out.
The only person effected, is the requestor. Is something like this
possible? even if only parts of it are demonable, maybe it 
would be much easier for someone to keep up?
	I'm just a hardware type, stuck here in the
real world, so one of you software types will have to answer this.

Believe it or not there are people out there that have to pay for disk space, 
further there are mail systems that insure that the receiver pays for mail 
space.  I already resent having to pay for all the headers that go on endlessly
about the itinerary of a message.  I was away for a while and ended up paying 
for many "extra" disk pages because of people mailing giant files containing 
source.  Go for a separate list.
