- ordered by e-mail from these servers:

- If your mailer wants bang paths: uunet!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
- uunet!vm.its.rpi.edu!listserv
-
- If you use bang paths, substitute your nearest neighbor which is also
- on the Internet for uunet in the examples above. Some examples are:
- ames, decvax, decwrl, harvard, hplabs, nosc, rutgers, sharkey, sun,
- ucbvax, ucsd, udel, uw-beaver, wuarchive.
-
- Send these commands to the server to get its help files:
-
- HELP
- GET PDGET HELP
-
- Sample command (which gets our catalog of MS-DOS files):
-
- /PDGET MAIL PD:<MSDOS.FILEDOCS>SIMLIST.ZIP UUENCODE
-
- These commands should be sent as the body of a regular email message.
- Do not include a signature because it confuses the server. If you
- have xxdecode, you may wish to specify XXENCODE instead of UUENCODE to
- avoid character translation problems.

-
- To get files sent to you by email, please use our mail server.
- To get more information write a message to mailserv@garbo.uwasa.fi.
- The subject line of this message must be
- garbo-request
- The message must contain just the following text (at the beginning
- of the line):
- send help
- Do not include a signature because it may confuse the server.
-
- Our customary format for the file names when announcing programs for
- ANONYMOUS FTP is e.g.
- garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip or
- /pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip
- IMPORTANT!!! The format for the MAIL SERVER is slightly different:
- send pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip
- In other words omit / from the path when using our mail server.
