I have a question which is related to the above msg.  Since there seems to be
more sites without ftp than with ftp to these various machines, is there a
gateway type machine out there which handles uucp-based requests for ftp-ped
files?  That is, I would like to be able to send an email message stating
that I wanted to ftp, the site to which the ftp was to go, login, passwrd
(if appropriate) and teh file to retrieve.  I doubt that this is available
though.  If not, then is there some OTHER way that the hunders, if not
thousands of folks without ftp can get to the files on simtel, mimsy, etc.?
