Cross-posted to ACCMAIL and website-by-email.
A Russian free webspace provider offers three ways to upload: via
ftp://www.null.ru
http://null.ru/cgi-bin/fm.pl or
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Webspace limit 1 M. Subdirectories forbidden. Registration form:
http://null.ru/cgi-bin/regmail.pl
Text there is in Russian, but form field names are in English:
"name" (username) can contain symbols a-z, 0-9;
"pwd" and "pwd1" (password) must be at least 3 symbols long;
"fullname" - your name is enough;
"email" - your email address, not on null.ru;
"alias" means forwarding:
You get mail account <username>@null.ru along with website.
It can either forward to the email address you specified at
registration or accumulate mail in mailbox with web
(<http://www.null.ru/cgi-bin/w3mail>, JavaScript required - Netscape
3.0+ or IE 4.0+) or POP3 (mail.null.ru) access.
Mailbox for the present allegely of unlimited size, no limit on letter
size. No SMTP server, but mail with @null.ru in "From:" can be sent
using web-access or "xtnd xmit" extension of POP3 protocol (or via
your ISP, of course).
Form for change of settings:
http://null.ru/cgi-bin/changemail
You can access your website as
http://www.null.ru/people/<username> or
http://www.null.ru/pages/<username>
For creation of a shortcut like http://<name>.null.ru use free
subdomain registration form:
http://null.ru/cgi-bin/rdna
Fill "url" field if you want to create shortcut to a site outside
null.ru; otherwise fill the "url_null" field by your username on
null.ru. "name" and "url_null" can differ.
I registered an account there online, but I think that it's possible
by accmail methods. I suppose that cookies aren't required for
registration.
If your page contains 8-bit characters and they get distorted then
upload .htm instead of .html or vice versa. It's because or handling
of two main Russian charsets: the site is designed for Russian users.
