Simtel20 was indeed off line most of last week (and weekend) due to the
worm (I assume). I am getting a lot of returned mail from places that
still haven't reconnected. 

I have always used arpanet/bitnet to access simtel, I didn't know
they had anonymous UUCP (dial up) access. Anyone have better info?
