I'm not set up to act as a mail server, but some other places are. You
can request a copy of the FAQ from rtfm.mit.edu's mail server like this:
To: mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu
Subject: foo
send faqs/cdrom/cd-recordable/part1
send faqs/cdrom/cd-recordable/part2
send faqs/cdrom/cd-recordable/part3
send faqs/cdrom/cd-recordable/part4
The mail server breaks each part into smaller pieces, so you will end up
with about a dozen mail messages when all is done.
You can get a full FAQ list on "accessing the Internet through e-mail" from
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/internet-services/access-via-email/ or by mail
request:
To: mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu
Subject: foo
send usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email
Don't put anything else in the body of these messages; just one or more
"send" lines. The "subject" line is ignored.
