Mit dem body *HELP* gibts's 'ne kurze Hilfe, mit *SEND HELP* eine lange.
Die kurze Hife folgt:
RUS Mail Server 1.21
Processing mail headers ...
Return address: "Hartmut Benz <benz@neper.uni-koblenz.de>"

Processing message contents...

Command: help

Valid server commands are:

BEGIN
    Begin processing. Any commands given before this command
    are forgotten. Use this if your mailer inserts garbage.
PATH <path>
    Specify return path. Use this if you are not sure that
    your mail system generates correct return addresses.
LIMIT <number>
    Maximum number of bytes to be sent per mail transfer.
    Default is 64K bytes.
    The limit applies to subsequent "send" commands.
UU[ENCODE]
XX[ENCODE]
BTOA
    Specify encoding to be used. Default is UUENCODE.
    The encoding applies to subsequent "send" commands.
    Use "send btoa" to obtain the btoa/atob support programs.
SEND <item> [<item>...]
    Specify the items to be sent.
    Use "send INDEX" for a list of items.
RESEND <item> <part> [<part>...]
    Re-sends the indicated <parts> from the specified <item>.
    The encoding and limit must be identical to those used in the
    original request.
PACK <archive>
    Specify archive method (tar|arc|zoo) for directories.
HELP
    This message.
    Use "send HELP" for a detailed description on how to use
    the archive server.
INDEX
    Equivalent to "send INDEX".
LAST <n>
    Send a list of new files from the last <n> days.
SEARCH <item>
    Search for a file using <item> as regular expression pattern.
END
EXIT
    Terminate command processing. The remainder of
    the input will be ignored.

Case is insignificant in the command verbs, but it is
significant in the <path> and <item> specifications.
Parts between [] are optional.




Your message has been processed.

Server hints:
 - "send unpack.pl" will send you a perl script to unpack multi-part
   transfers.
 - "send unpack.c" will send you a C program to do the same.
 - "send unpack.uue" will send you an MS-DOS executable of this program
   in uuencoded form.
 - "send unpack.xxe" will send you an MS-DOS executable of this program
   in xxencoded form.
 - "send btoa" will yield a ".shar"-file with the btoa/atob programs.
 - "send uudecode" will yield a ".shar" with uudecode/uuencode.
 - "send xxdecode" will yield a ".shar" with xxdecode/xxencode.
 - "send compress" will yield a ".shar" with compress/uncompress.
   The above ".shar"-files are sent unencoded, of course.

Mail Server finished.
Revision level: 1.3 - Date: Oct 5, 1990
-----------
Das Inhaltsverzeichnis ist VIEL zu lang, um es zu posten. Das TeX  
Inhaltsverzeichnis bekommt man mit *send soft/tex/FILES.Z* (compressed!).

In letzter Zeit ist der Mailserver bein Antworten etwas langsamer  
geworden. Vielleicht ist er in den Anfragen etwas erstickt...also bitte  
mit Bedacht saugen!
