I agree... I just wish I knew enough to tell exactly what I have and
what I don't have. I will probably just set up one of the uucp progs
and see if it works... The only thing that I know for sure is that I
can get to a unix prompt, but many of the unix commands are blocked.

I have the feed working, it is just a pain to do it manually. All I really
need is a program to look into a certain directory, create an email message
to the person that the particular directory is linked, and attach all the
files in that directory to the email message (MIME preferably). Aside from
that, I can accomplish all the rest with a batch file calling a few other
progs I already have to (hopefully :) call my provider and up/download.
I asked an acquaintance of mine, DJ DeLorie, if he could write one for me,
but he is a bit busy, and I can't afford him... :) I have another friend
that is supposed to give it a shot, but his programming skills may not be
up to the task... :(
I do appreciate the offer, though, and I will email you to ask about
details anyway in order to keep my options open...
