Good :-)  You're playing around with a development version; the latest
official version of Elm is 2.3PL11. Details on where to get it follow
at the end of this message...

This is probably one of the side effects of 'archie'-like services: rarely
did people come up with the development version about a year ago (those who
did, walked into it by accident on the dsi.com archives). With archie,
however, it's hard to miss the development version and human logic
considers ( 2.4 > 2.3 ) being true, to be a very valid reason to go
for the 2.4dev version...

Please, people, read 'comp.mail.elm' and Syd's montly postings and stick
to the information in that file if you want the latest Elm version. Thanks.

  We, Computer Science department, Utrecht University,  are  running  an
anonymous  FTP  server  on  one  of  our systems. In addition to the FTP
service we're also running a mail  server,  for  those  of  you  without
direct Internet access.


--> How to get 'Elm and montly posting' via anonymous FTP:

	Site:		ftp.cs.ruu.nl  [131.211.80.17]
	Login:		"anonymous" or "ftp"
	Password:	your own email address (you@your_domain)
	File:		/pub/ELM-2.3/elm.tar.Z

--> How to get 'Elm and montly posting' via e-mail from our mail-server:

    NOTE: In the following I have assumed that your mail address is
	  "fred_flintstone@stone.age.edu"; of course you must substitute
	  your own address for this.
	  ** PLEASE USE VALID DOMAIN ADDRESSES. DO NOT USE ADDRESSES **
	  ** WITH ! and @ MIXED !!!! BITNETTERS USE USER@HOST.BITNET **


    Send the following message to
		mail-server@cs.ruu.nl
    or the old-fashioned path alternative
		uunet!mcsun!sun4nl!ruuinf!mail-server


      begin
      path fred_flintstone@stone.age.edu (SUBSTITUTE *YOUR* ADDRESS)
      send ELM-2.3/elm.tar.Z
      send NEWS.ANSWERS/elm-monthly/part1
      send NEWS.ANSWERS/elm-monthly/diff
      end


The path command can be deleted if we receive a valid from address in your
message. If this is the first time you use our mail server, we suggest you
first issue the request:

      send HELP


  A complete "ls-lR" listing of the archive is  kept  in  the  top-level
directory, it will be updated every night. To get it, issue the command:

     send ls-lR.Z



  That's all for now. If you encounter problems using  the  FTP  service
and/or the mail-server, feel free to drop me a line (by e-mail, please).
