Explain: ...!ucbvax!simtel20.arpa! archive-request. I am waited for files in approx 1 day and get requested files. I couldn't believe that WISCVM gateways tie network too much. Today, I received some requested files from archive-request. It took 7 days to arrive! On friday, it modified to replyable-block. I had send to info-CPM but it mailed back me. I was surprised that I received from BITNET%"H462BATMS@GALLUA.BITNET" from arpanet instead EDU%"....@WISCVM.WISC.EDU" That cause blocked some mail server to reply to bitnet sites. To work, use UUCP mail until WISCVM has repaired. Sorry for you. Last weekend, I tried to send netmail to archive-request and I get some files from archive-request via UUCP. It works fine! For BITNET users, use SENDGATE to send to archive-request: simtel20!archive-request@ucbvax.uucp or simtel20!archive-request@ucbvax.usenet to send request files. or you can look in your archive blurb about UUCP. Thanx, Tim Stark
