Getting Files from LISTSERV

 

Has anyone tried to download files from any of the LISTSERV sites providing access to the VM-UTIL discussion list? Such as

I've read the directions, and I have tried to download a set of files from MARIST. The commands process okay, but the e-mails delivering the files are empty, even though the list says there are non-zero records available. If an entry says zero (0) records, then you can't download it.

Mark,
Well not got anything useful. I do get stuff back in a second e-mail but the MIME types may result in it being ignored, blocked or scrambled. Try sending

?INFO REFCARD

And see if any of the format options help.

For future reference.

I get data back for: DISK, LPUNCH, PUNCH, CARD, NETDATA, MIME/text. Now I have to see which of those are useful to me in my hybrid ASCII/EBCDIC world.

I do not get data back for: XXENCODE, UUENCODE. I get a response, but there is no data in the e-mails for the GETs.

I did not try: VMSDUMP ( I don't a KVM installed & running OpenVMS), MIME/Appl (I don't know which of the MANY applications I should use), Mail (It's going to be enough of a challenge getting from ASCII to EBCDIC).
