   The reason for this is that the MHSnet ftpserver on plaza (archie.au)
   has been made to use Alex to obtain files if it can

Does this work for other forms of request as well, such as ftpmail
etc?  Does Alex "distribute" (i.e. can I ask a local agent to ask
archie's alex server rather than ftping directly?)
