If you don't have ProDOS by now, I suggest you run--don't walk--to your nearest
Apple dealer and get it from them.  DOS 3.3 is virtually obsolete.  All the
utilities used for file transfer here, such as ShrinkIt and BinSCII, require
ProDOS.  If you still have a 48K II Plus, pop the $50 or whatever (it should be
cheaper) and get a language card.  Right now it looks like you're headed
nowhere but oblivion with your setup.

On an unrelated subject, why does my mail always bounce when I try to send it
to a UUCP location?  The most recent case was this address:

                        con_jdc%umt@apple.com

Apple's mailer sent back a message to the effect to try again with "proper UUCP
syntax or a fully-qualified domain name."  Every time I try sending something
through to a UUCP location, it gets bounced back.  (I'm only guessing that the
final destination, apparently con_jdc@umt, is a UUCP location connected to the
Internet through Apple.  Any clues?  As he (referring to the above address) 
tried to say, "sraseeva." (That's the transliteration. :-) ))
