Dominic Dowden, you said this about Ftp via email:
>Hi all

>can any one tell me how to ftp useing email, ie send requests for files
>and have them sent by email.

mail to:
mailbase@mailbase.ac.uk

Body text:
send (I think that's right) lis-iis e-access-inet.txt

That gets you a 64k guide to doing all sorts of things by email (even
getting web pages).

BTW you can send the text "help" to the same address, with the obvious
resulting reply.

Andy
