The following is a script file that I run on my UNIX station to mail SIMTEL
requests to a list server.  It is a mod from one I was given on the net.

#-------- BEGIN -----------------
# 'file' is location of a temporary file
file=/usr/tmp/simrequest
# 'me' is my mail address
me=uunet!ingr!b23b!dragon!keith
# 'listserv' is address of list server
listserv=b23b\!ingr\!uunet\!vm1.nodak.edu\!listserv
# print help if they goofed
if (test "$#" -ne "3")
  then
    echo
    echo "usage: getsimtel <disk> <directory> <filename>"
    echo
    echo "Example: getsimtel pd1 msdos.filedocs simibm.arc" 
    exit
fi
echo "/PDGET MAIL $1:<$2>$3 ( UUENCODE" > $file
# mail our request, 'fastmail' from ELM product
fastmail -r $me -F $me -s Request $file $listserv
echo "getsimtel done"
#--------- END --------------------------
