See comp.os.cpm for more details. > -Mark I looked in comp.os.cpm and the only thing about Simtel-20 I could find was this message, which seems to indicate it's alive and well. Could you perhaps clarify your message or post your source for saying that it's down? (Are you talking about the mail-based archive-server?)

Re: the simtel20 archives.
Nothing has changed for those of you with internet (ftp) access
to simtel20. What has changed is the mail server which allowed
us on bitnet (and other nets with only mail access to internet)
to get at the files at simtel20. Rumor has it that mail service
will be restored near the end of this year. Notice that this is
rumor, not fact. I don't represent simtel20, nor can I spell
at all. The usual disclaimers apply.....
