Hi ACCMAILers !
Iname-- http://www.iname.com Free SMTP and forwarding, as well as Web based
e-mail service. Fast and fairly reliable. POP service also available for a
monthly charge, but why would you use it when you can have it forwarded to any
of the services below for free?
NTScan-- http://www.ntscan.com Formerly Computer Central, they are back and
offering free SMTP and POP services. Domain name is ntscan.com
Mail and News -- http://www.mailandnews.com Along with Telebot (above), one of
only two services thus far offering free IMAP as well as POP and SMTP service;
impressive. Domain name is mailandnews.com

services. Domain is freemail.com
Flashmail -- http://www.flashmail.com A new Free POP and SMTP, and web-based

SaintMail -- http://www.saintmail.net A new free POP and SMTP service geared
towards Christians, but of course open to all. Domain is saintmail.net

looking service featuring free POP and SMTP service. Domain is mailplanet.com

allows you to put your choice of a number of place names between the "@" and
crosswinds.net--e.g., [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Includes free home

e-mail accounts as well!
Asian Wired --Philippines based free POP, SMTP and Web based service. Domain
name is asianwired.com
Theatre Organs-- http://www.theatreorgans.com How's "theatreorgans.com" grab
you as a domain name with a difference?!

Fast Network Communications -- http://www.fnmail.com They have unfortunately
discontinued their SMTP service as too many people were using it for spam! Their
POP service is still very reliable, though. Domain name is fnmail.com
c3ntris-- http://www.c3ntris.com Like many people, when I initially saw this
domain name, I said, "Huh?" But they can't be too bad, after all, they're
offering Free POP e-mail accounts!
Friendly Mail -- http://www.mypad.com The latest of the well-known web-based
e-mail account providers to jump on the free POP account bandwagon.

I want to upload my homepage to server via email using FTP. Can I did
it?
Please reply to my email

Subject: Two Web Directories
HandiLinks - Web Directory Service, Internet Index and Guide.
Good for Accmailers because it's fully browsable.
http://ahandyguide.com/
I found the above resource at "General Search Directories and Subject
Guides":
http://fossick.com/General.htm
This URL has quite a few links to all kinds of Web Directories.
Not all of them are easily accessible for Accmailers though.
Nevertheless, check them out.
Both links are best for searching for information about a general
subject, rather than for a specific piece of information.

Subject: NEW: ftpmail
Hi Gerry!
What is going on down here? Is this list dead and burried?
No more internet searches?
No more accmail hacks?
Less and less e-mail servers?
Nothing about e-mail tips?
You should do something about that :)
unless you want us all migrate to web-on-line :(
Here you are some ftpmailer addresses for refreshing your servers list:
(hint: don't put them on that awfull "FTPMail, Agora, etc. statistics" unless you want
them
defunct at once :(
worldwide ftpmail servers:
a Japanese server in Yokohama
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
a nice Russian server in Chernogolovka (does parts)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and a Ukrainian one at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
or some local service ftp servers:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] on ftp.dante.de
[EMAIL PROTECTED] alias [EMAIL PROTECTED] for
jbarchuk.com nessus.org fidonews.org and tfabbs.org domains
and some restricted access servers:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
or some more defunct ftpmailers:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subject: NEW: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Just found a new ACCMAIL toy - a Ukrainian gophermail server at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Beware gophermail fans!
This is not the regular perl script used by the other gophermail servers!
The software is written in C (for accmail hackers - you may retrieve the full program
source by ftp - look for a gophermail.tgz archive on their Odessa site :)
Main features of this odd gophermail:
commands must be given in the body of your e-mail...
recognized commands are:
"X"
"HOST"
"FIND"
"CSO"
"HELP"
"LIST"
expl.
#to retrieve a top gopher server menu, send this message:
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
HOST your.gopherhost.here
and it will look for gopher://your.gopherhost.here:70
#to get a very, very and most usefull help :( in Ukrainian with text/plain;
charset=koi8-r :(
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
HELP
#to get a hopeless list of gopher servers around send:
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
LIST
#and now the usefull things - the X command
here you are some examples for retrieving documents through gopher raw menus
(the only way this C-gophermail server will respond to your requests)
for a regular gopher menu
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 Fun & Games
1 1 1/fun spinaltap.micro.umn.edu 70
to retrieve a ftp dir:
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 ftpdir for ftp.freebsd.org/pub
1 1 ftp:ftp.freebsd.org@/pub/ gopher.eunet.cz 70
to retrieve a binary UUencoded ftp file:
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 wssearch.zip
1 9 ftp:ftp.netcom.com@/pub/gb/gboyd/wssearch.zip gopher.eunet.cz 70
and now for some nice hacks:
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 fingertest
1 0 quake quake.geo.berkeley.edu 79
or
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 daytime
X 2 daytime
1 0 %09 sunshine.itcnet.ro 13
2 0 %09 cisco1telerom.telerom.ro 13
(the last one is quite cooool :)
or
TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X 1 echo
X 2 echo
1 0 echotest sunshine.itcnet.ro 7
2 0 echotest cisco1telerom.telerom.ro 7
Every request will be first replied with this wonderfull acknowledgment:
��� ������ ��������� � ������� � ������� /var/tmp/gophTM.16422. <- this may vary :)
����� ������!
The bright side of the things: IT's FAST! - and no one uses it :)
The other side:
it thinks that spaces are tabs :(
I'm still working on the other two commands: FIND and CSO (intended for waissearch and
phsearch)
Homework:
How do you make it work for http requests?
You should tell him to do a X command for PATH: GET /your.path.here
obs.
The X command works like that:
first of all you place in the body of your mail:
X number your_title
X another_number another_title
than you place:
number type path host port
another_number type path host port
Happy gophermailing and have fun!
