Anyone using the ftp mail server at ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com successfully?  I
have tried many sites.  I have received a couple of sucessful dir commands,
all other attempts yield just a message of receipt, or an empty reply.  I
have never retrieved a binary.

If someone is having success with this service, could you email a site you
refer to and an example mail message?

NOTE: Please IGNORE the return address on this message if it says
nobody@kodak.com.  Use one of the return addresses specified below.

Does anyone know if there is an Amiga terminal program that 
has built in MNP error-correction/data compression?  There are numerous
ones on the PC [MTE and Commit, for instance] but none I know of on any other
system.  Is the MNP protocol info available for programmers to implement?
I might be interested in writing MNP for the Amiga as perhaps a 
serial device [so any terminal should work with it] if I can get ahold
of a complete description of it.
