Hello all,

    Recently I posted that I had put the replies I received concerning the 
format of VMS mail (*.MAI) files up for anonymous ftp on unocss.unl.edu
(129.93.1.11).  Someone sent me mail saying that they had a problem
getting a DIRECTORY of the anonymous account, presumably from their VMS
machine.

     I'm assuming this works from Unix machines, because I did it with no 
problems from another Unix machine here.  The only way I could get a DIRECTORY 
from a VMS machine was to type DIRECTORY "*".  This seems to work fine. Sorry
for any trouble this caused, and I'll try to get it fixed...
