Due to the kind work of  R. Rodgers (rodgers@maxwell.mmwb.ucsf.edu), and
Nelson Beebe (beebe@math.utah.edu), archie now has a revised man page. It has
basically been cleaned up and rewritten for clarity. It has also been
updated to include the latest additions to the email interface.

It can be retrieved from quiche.cs.mcgill.ca (132.206.2.3) via anonymous
ftp in the directory ~ftp/archie/doc as archie.man.roff for the *roff
(man) version or as formatted ASCII text in archie.man.txt. Compressed
versions of both of these files (.Z) are in the directory as well.

For those of you without direct Internet access, here it is. Enjoy.
