I hate to post this, but it seems to have affected a lot of you....
I just found an obscure bug in our file server (obscure meaning that
it took me forever to find it, not that it wasn't important). The
problem was that I had some documents with the same leading characters
as one of the categories; specifically "PPDFiles" is a directory, and
there are two documents called "PPDFiles1.ps" and "PPDFiles2.ps". The
server was getting confused by this and would issue a message saying
"I couldn't find in your message anything to send."
I have fixed the bug, to the best of my knowledge. I have also renamed
those two documents to be "PPDformat1.ps" and "PPDformat2.ps", and they
can be retreived like this:
send Documents PPDformat1.ps
The PPDFiles themselves ("send PPDFiles APPLE422.PPD", etc.) should
also be reachable now. I'm sorry to those of you who have had trouble
getting these files. It took me a while to figure out what was wrong.
Thanks for your patience and continued interest.
