I come from a site without FTP. I suspect a great many of the the readers of this group are in a like situation. my question goes like this. Is there an archive site that works through mailers. (uucp...f.e.)? I know that on other binary groups there are sites that have automatic archive systems that search through the text of mail addressed to it for "tokens" that decode into an action. for instance, ----a letter with the text of send foobar.uue seoiur!dslcnb!dskjh1!@sksksk.mil (billy bob) would cause file fobar [encrypted in uucode] to be mailed to billy bob. Does such a site for ibm.pc exist? thanks. culater. UUCP: nosc!pnet07!ballen ARPA: simasd!pnet07!ballen@nosc.mil INET: ballen@pnet07.cts.com

No. Rahul has mentioned something about setting up a site for anonymous
UUCP, which grape.ecs.clarkson.edu doesn't do. What is the problem with
simply calling grape.ecs.clarkson.edu by modem, and using XMODEM, YMODEM,
or ZMODEM to download whatever you want?
