Subject: EMAIL-FTP Is Here!

We are happy to announce a new version of EMAIL-FTP service for sites
that do not have FTP access to the Internet.  The EMAIL-FTP service is
an enhancement to the CSNET Info-Server.  Version 2 of the EMAIL-FTP
service is less susceptible to errors from time-outs at remote hosts.

Send your requests to info-server@cs.net.  The enhanced Info-Server
will parse the request, ftp the file, and mail the results back to you
or to the address specified in the Reply-to field in your message.

First, however, you should send a regular Info-Server request to get the
help file.  Send a message to info-server@cs.net with the following
lines in the text:

request: info
topic: help-ftp
request: end

Please send comments and suggestions to cic@cs.net.
