The Adobe File Server is a automatic mail-response program.
That means that you mail it a request, and it mails back
the response. Direct dial-in is not supported.

To get in touch with the server, send a message (in whatever
way you normally send mail) to "ps-file-server@adobe.COM"
containing the word "help" in either the Subject: field 
OR the message body. It will reply with a message on how
to use the available services.

There are many documents available from the server as 
PostScript files, plus program sources, Adobe Font Metrics
files, PostScript Printer Description files, and other 
things.

You might send a second message containing the word 
"index" to save some time once you get the help message.

If you have any problems contacting the server, or you have
any suggestions, please send a message to the moderator
(ps-file-person@adobe.COM).
