    Could a helpful soul show me what I am doing wrong in requesting
     files?  Note that I have tried upper and then lower case.  This is
     the lower case attempt:

     send binaries/volume1/idle12
     send binaries/volume2/arc521b
     send binaries/volume2/monofont
     send binaries/volume2/timecode


         I get back the following error report:

The SSYX archive server has received your request.
     The server could not find in your message the name of anything to send.
     If you need instructions, send the server a message saying "help"

    I know that I am going to feel real stupid, but what am I doing
     wrong?  I have followed, or so I thought, the server's instructions
     perfectly.  Like I say, real stupid.

(sorry 'bout the composition of this thing.  We're having other problems
as well!)
