essentially the same thing. Send a message to this address:

Body of Message: help <carriage return> quit

Or to this address:

In either case a help file will be returned to you explaining how
to use the FTPmail facility.

are always available by sending email to or fingering the following:

file.

Remember: the above address is NOT for correspondence. If you want
anything other than a list sent back to you, use the email addresses
in my signature.
