It's possible to get files from SIMTEL with email command like 'send index' or something like that? And, of course, how to do? Thank you. catozzo@cup.portal.com

I know two fileservers, listserv@vm1.nodak.edu and listserv@vm.ecs.rpi.edu, which you can send requests for files. Just send a message like for example /PDGET PD:<MSDOS.GIF>MOUSE.GIF or, if you want a directory listing, /PDDIR PD:<MSDOS.*>*.arc 14 if you want to know all msdos arc files (for example) that are less than 14 days old. You can get about 100k per day per person. succes, Michael
