* EleBBS Support List

Hi Matt,

Please remember to turn off HTML when writing to the list.
This list is gated to the FidoNet EleBBS echo, which does
not support HTML.

Have a look at the FAQ page here:
http://pcmicro.com/elebbs/faq/ftpserver.html

Also, make sure you are using a recent (2006) build of EleServ.exe,
as FTP was not supported in versions 0.09 or 0.10RC1.

You should be able to log on with "matt munson" (no quotes).
There is no need change spaces to periods.

If you still have trouble, try showing a paste of your ftp session
using ftp.exe from the local pc.

Regards,  Mike
