Yes, I have.    It works very well.    Their mailer is aparently set
up to prioritize jobs with respect to request size.   Smaller jobs are
acted upon first.    There is also a 100K request size limit.    I 
suspect that they are treating the server as the lowest priority task
on their system.    My last request took almost a week to receive.   Your
requests are acknologed by return EMAIL and then your job is queued.
One thing to note is that their documentation is pure PostScript
[ I can't imagine why they decided on that :-)   ]   you must print it
on a PS printer in order to get something useable.
