This article is from the [alt.backrubs] Frequently Asked Questions, posted to alt.backrubs newsgroup. Maintained by Jamie Blustein with numerous contributions by others.
Please note that this list is almost certainly not complete and none of the materials listed here are maintained by the person responsible for this document. If you have any corrections or possible additions to this list please send mail to the FAQL maintainer; question 0.3 has other relevant details.
If you are new to the Usenet then you will probably find question 5.2.6 the most useful.
The lists in the following sections do not include the entire subject line for many of the newsgroup postings to which they refer, since the postings appear in many parts. The notation `[etc.]' appears at the point where the subject lines were truncated to help you use the rest to search for the postings.
The Archive-name can be used to find the files at the rtfm.mit.edu FTP site. Files are stored in directories corresponding to the newsgroups they are posted in (pub/usenet-by-group/ and pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/) and archive-name (pub/usenet-by-group/news.answers/). Archive-names that end with `*' are directories that contain the multi-part postings.
For example, the alt.backrubs archive announcement (which has Archive-name `backrubs/archive', Subject `[alt.backrubs] FTP archive site' and is posted to the newsgroups alt.backrubs, alt.answers and news.answers) is stored in the following files at the rtfm.mit.edu site:
pub/usenet-by-group/news.answers/backrubs/archive pub/usenet-by-group/alt.answers/backrubs/archive pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/news/answers/backrubs/archive pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/alt/answers/backrubs/archive pub/usenet-by-group/alt.backrubs/[alt.backrubs]_FTP_archive_site pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/alt/backrubs/[alt.backrubs]_FTP_archive_site
It is a single part posting.
If you can't use FTP but can send and receive mail, you can use a mail server to retrieve the files. To learn about the news.answers mail server send an e-mail message to <mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu> with the word help on a line of its own in the body (not the Subject) of the message. There is some information about other FTP mail servers in the alt.backrubs archive announcement, and still more information about how to retrieve networked resources by mail is available from the Internet by E-Mail FAQL (see question 5.2.6 e).
