  That's what happened the last time. I actually sent both files, but
with the same name! You only keep the *second* one, which in this case
is the actual message, so I've got the content right now. I know what
the problem is... it's at my end in the .CMD file, which seems to tell
FXUUCICO how to give them unix names.

  Is D.scorpionnnn okay for you, or does it have to be d.Uboblnnn?

  To do even that much, I had to write a little utility program, and
if I go any further I may as well write the whole thing. Anyway, I'll
send you another one tonight, named 0005 this time. It should actually
work. These are just silly details... easily fixed.

Regards,
Bob
