Hi,
I just built version 2.2 of the elm mailer, and the patch level is 0.
I was wondering were or how to get patches 1 through 8, I was able to pull
patch 9 and 10 off the net. I saw in the an old posting of the elm monthly
posting, that patches are available from the arvhice server at DSI.COM. But
is this an anon. ftp site or what. If it is, can someone tell me the IP
address. And if it's not, can someone e-mail me the patches. I would also
like any patches made sine 10, since that was the last one I saw.
Thanks in advance,
greg

But >is this an anon. ftp site or what? I thought my monthly posting was clear enough, but, the archive-server@dsi.com is a mail response program. Just mail to it and it will reply with instructions on how to use it. Elm patches can be sent via the send command, and the patches are named elm2.2.pN where N is the patch number. Just remember it's a program, so just send it the commands, if it gets confused, it will just mail you back instructions. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S.

Many, many people have asked how they can get patches for elm. Come on
everyone. WAKE UP!
Here is an extract from every elm patch that I've ever seen; so there is
little excuse for someone not knowing this:
The patches are available from the dsinc archive server
Send the following message to archive-server@DSI.COM for
a list of available patches:
Subject: patch list
send index elm
I trust that this puts an end to this very popular question?

If you are having problems with the archive server of this nature, write me, and at the same time, resend it one of the failed trys. I will look in the queue and see what happened. Most times, the problem is that it cannot figure out a reply path. Thus try the path working-path-to-you command within your message. BTW: our archive-server is just the decwrl archive server program. Its dumb, but easy to maintain. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S.
