******************************************************************************

       CSNET EMAIL-FTP V.2 SERVICE DOWN FOR REPAIRS

CSNET EMAIL-FTP V.2 was installed on 17 Apr 90 and announced in
CSNET-FORUM on 18 Apr 90.  The announcement was immediately copied to
INFO-NETS, and the EMAIL-FTP service was immediately subjected to use
by the CSNET and INFO-NETS communities.  Version 2 of the EMAIL-FTP
service was advertised as being less susceptible than Version 1 to
errors caused by timing out at the remote host.  This proved to be
correct, but the 1055 email-ftp requests that were processed between
18 Apr and 10 May turned up other problems that could not be fixed on
the fly.  We have therefore decided to take down the email-ftp service
temporarily for repairs and testing.

YOUR REQUEST IS BEING HELD ON SH.CS.NET TEMPORARILY.  WE RETURN IT TO
YOU IN THE NEAR FUTURE.  MEANWHILE, YOU WILL RECEIVE THE USUAL  
AUTOMATIC RECEIPT FROM THE CSNET INFO SERVER.

When the service is resumed, we will make an announcement in
CSNET-FORUM, on INFO-NETS, and in the HELP document for the CSNET 
Info-Server.

For the latest news about EMAIL-FTP, send a message to
info-server@sh.cs.net with the following text in the body of the
message:

        REQUEST: INFO
        TOPIC: HELP-FTP
        REQUEST: END

Please send questions, etc., to "cic@sh.cs.net".
