lotus-note:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ,but I can't subscribe to it trying almost all methods, for
example:
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I only got error messages

Hi ,
Does anyone know where i can find the " SUCK PROXY " program?
It's a program that when you connect through a proxy,
aborts proxy server and lets you go on without proxy!
Best regards,
bye.

I found the following in my list of file formats (downloaded from
whatis.com):
MIM Attachments in AOL. The files in a multipart MIM file can be "opened"
(unarchived and separated into individual files) using Winzip or a similar
program.
Maybe your correspondent uses AOL.

Subject: Pre-Zipped WWW sites
Hi Folks:
We always dream of pre-zipping an entire site and then downloading it to
hard drive.
Well, the latest "Tourbus" gives us this information:
- BoostWeb: Another browser accelerator, which claims to make your
surfing up to seven times faster using a proxy server that
compresses web info before sending it to your browser.
<A href="http://www.boostweb.net">
BoostWeb - http://www.boostweb.net </A>
Some thing to check out -- and -- for those of you that do not know about
Tourbus -- here is that info as well.

I'd be willing to bet that you only have about 5Mb total. The
psp503eve.exe file when uuencoded and split at 300K should yield some
30+ messages.
7023880 X 3/2 (uuencode increase in size) / ( 300 X 1024) = 34+ pieces
of mail
The note in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] help file under size I think
really is the limit to the size of the file, not the limit to the pieces.
size num[K|M]
Set the max size a file can be before it
is split up and emailed back in parts to
the given number of Kilo or Mega bytes.
This is limited to 5120000.
I think you need to use another ftpmail server. Try the bitftp ones.
They don't allow more that 10Mb per day, but if you happen to only
request one that day larger than 10Mb you will receive it.

Only Lotus Notes mailing list I find is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Lotus Notes Interest Group (810 subscribers)
You can mail a request for an "info" file to the server address,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Put this single line in the mail message:
info NOTES-L
You can get a general "help" file from that server by mailing this
single line
