It is ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com. Send it a message containing just the word help to find out how to use it. Perhaps people who post info about FTP sites can add these details.

You can generate yourself a awful lot of mail if you are not careful. -- Susan Carter ( sc@stl.stc.co.uk +44-279-429531 Ext 3702 )
