8. Could somebody mail me...? (alt.comedy.british)

If you want a file available by FTP, gopher or WWW, and you don't have
access to those particular services, please don't ask the group to fetch it
for you. There are a number of mail-based servers which can fetch files and
mail them back to you. Check out the document "Accessing The Internet By
E-Mail", by Bob Rankin, BobRankin@Delphi.com; it's posted monthly to
alt.internet.services, alt.online-service, alt.bbs.internet, alt.answers
and news.answers, and you can retrieve a copy by sending email to
mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu, with this text in the body of the note:

send usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email
