Sure, you can send them a message and they will send you back files. That is fine for bitnet people. But many of the files on the list servers are too big to be mailed to me in one piece (100K is the biggest that our gateway (thanks Indiana University) but some places aren't so lucky) can handle. It would really be nice if someone set up a list server that would send out files in 32K chunks. -Michael -- Michael Niehaus UUCP: !{iuvax,pur-ee}!bsu-cs!mithomas Apple Student Rep ARPA: mithomas@bsu-cs.bsu.edu Ball State University AppleLink: ST0374 (from UUCP: st0374@applelink.apple.com)
