[comp.sys.atari.st] ARCHIVE-SERVER@SSYX.UCSC.EDU/PROBLEMS WITH SEND COMMAND

CHIASSA@UDEM.BITNET (Alyre CHIASSON) (02/16/89)

  I have been able to retrieve the help and index files from
  archive-server@ssyx.ucsc.edu without any problem. However, I
  get no response to any of my send messages, ex.
  send binaries/volume2/arcgsh/part01 part02 following the
  format given in the "help" file. I have also tried using the
  path command using both "CHIASSA@UDEM.BITNET" recommended in
  the "help" file as well as the address the server used to send
  me the help and index files. I have tried the path and send command
  in different order, included and not included in the subjet
  heading, and one command tagged to the other, ex.
  send binaries/volume?/?/path ###@### with no response. I have
  access to bitnet through "NETNORTH" so I even tried as a
  path address CHIASSA@UDEM.BITNET.NETNORTH. I've run out of
  combinations and know no wizards. What I really don't understand
  is why there is no problem with my address for help and index
  files but problems for the send command. Perhaps because I
  am new to the system I am missing something obvious but I
  would really appreciate any suggestions on whether there is
  a solution to my problem regarding send messages. It has
  been 12 days since my first send message so I don't think
  I've been queued back all this time.


  Many Thanks
