User`s guide

ftp files by email. I think that by sending HELP to that address you will get
the rules of how to do it.
How about surfing the net? Well, I send messages to [e-mail]
or [e-mail] with SUBJECT anything (it will be ignored) and
message:
get http://www .... .html (i.e. the URL of the document)
You can expect to receive the www-document in your email box.
If you need to look at the source files of the www-page, send message:
get http://www .... .html
You also may simply send message HELP to the above addresses, if your request
fails. This way you will find out whether or not you made a mistake in sending
your request. If the http-URL is too long (more than one line), you may expect
problems.
Some of the servers will send you image files, too, like .gif or .jpg files. I
get these files as file attachments in my mailbox. You have to experiment to see
what works for you. Some files are ready to use, others (uuencode or mime) need
to be decoded with BISCIT.
Search engines? Yes, they are available, too.
You need to know about http-URLs on keyword1 and keyword2? Send message to
[e-mail]. In the body write this:
search keyword1 keyword2
Voila, you are in business.
If the http-URL contains a pdf-file, send message to [e-mail] or to
[e-mail] with message:
http://www .... .pdf
and you will get the file back in text format.
If you want the pdf-files back in html-format, that can be done by replacing
"txt" in the URLs with "htm".
I use Proterm 3.1 for surfing by email and have my favorite addresses available
as macros.
