We are happy to announce a new version of EMAIL-FTP service for sites that do not have FTP access to the Internet. The EMAIL-FTP service is an enhancement to the CSNET Info-Server. Version 2 of the EMAIL-FTP service is less susceptible to errors from time-outs at remote hosts. Send your requests to info-server@cs.net. The enhanced Info-Server will parse the request, ftp the file, and mail the results back to you or to the address specified in the Reply-to field in your message. First, however, you should send a regular Info-Server request to get the help file. Send a message to info-server@cs.net with the following lines in the text: request: info topic: help-ftp request: end Please send comments and suggestions to cic@cs.net.
