   I [am looking for] EMACS 18.59. [...] the archie servers [don't]
   seem to mention 18.59. Can someone [help]? Thanks.

The "official" master for all GNU software lives on "Prep.AI.MIT.Edu"
(actually no longer an AI Lab machine, but the "published" name is an
alias for wherever it _does_ live :-) in the directory pub/gnu.  The
file name you want is emacs-18.59.tar.Z (remember to use binary mode
to transfer it).

I thought that most Archie servers had this machine in their list
(under at least one of its names, it presently distributes for a
number of interesting things, including Athena software and Kerberos).
You should probably contact the operators of whatever Archie server
you were using and mention this to them, the file has been there since
Halloween and they should have picked it up by now...
