If you do not have FTP access to SIMTEL20 or its mirrors, files may be
ordered by e-mail from these servers:

Location        EARN/BITNET          Internet
--------------  ----------------     ----------------------------------
In USA:         LISTSERV@NDSUVM1     LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU
In USA:         LISTSERV@RPITSVM     LISTSERV@VM.ITS.RPI.EDU

In Turkey:      TRICKLE@TREARN       TRICKLE@EGE.EDU.TR
In Denmark:     TRICKLE@DKTC11
In Italy:       TRICKLE@IMIPOLI
In Belgium:     TRICKLE@BANUFS11     TRICKLE@CCS.UFSIA.AC.BE
In Austria:     TRICKLE@AWIWUW11
In Germany:     TRICKLE@DEARN        TRICKLE@VM.GMD.DE
In Israel:      TRICKLE@TAUNIVM      TRICKLE@VM.TAU.AC.IL
In Netherlands: TRICKLE@HEARN        TRICKLE@HEARN.NIC.SURFNET.NL
In France:      TRICKLE@FRMOP11      TRICKLE@FRMOP11.CNUSC.FR
In Colombia:    TRICKLE@UNALCOL      TRICKLE@UNALCOL.UNAL.EDU.CO
In Sweden:      TRICKLE@SEARN        TRICKLE@SEARN.SUNET.SE

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.

Comments, questions, and suggestions should be directed to the LISTSERV
or TRICKLE manager at one of these addresses, depending on which server
you normally use:

                          Internet                  BITNET

        "John Fisher" <FISHER@VM.ITS.RPI.EDU>   <FISHER@RPITSVM>
         "Marty Hoag" <INFO@VM1.NODAK.EDU>      <INFO@NDSUVM1>
"TRICKLE Maintainers" <RED-BUG@EGE.EDU.TR>      <RED-BUG@TREARN>

Please do NOT send your comment or question about the servers to SIMTEL20.
However, if you wish to report a program bug or to request information
on how to upload files to SIMTEL20, you may send e-mail to me at one
of the addresses below.

   [Note: Do not use ftp-by-mail servers without the permission of your
   system administrator and (if fed via uucp) your uucp feed.  Thank
   you.  Justification: many sites simply don't have the disk space
   set up to do this without warning, and mail disruption may result.]
