Perl FAQ 1.13
The following is a list of known ftpmail sites. Please attempt to use the site closest to you with the ftp archive closest to it. Many of these sites already have perl on them. For information on how to use one of these sites, send email containing the word ``help'' to the address.
United States:
Massachusetts: ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com
New Jersey: bitftp@pucc.princeton.edu
North Carolina: ftpmail@sunsite.unc.edu
Europe/UK:
Germany: ftpmail@ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
bitftp@vx.gmd.de
UK: ftpmail@doc.ic.ac.uk
Australia: ftpmail@cs.uow.edu.au
Henk P Penning* suggests that if you are in Europe you should try the
following (if you are in Germany or the UK, you should probably use one
of the servers listed above):
Email: Send a message to 'mail-server@cs.ruu.nl' containing:
begin
path your_email_address
send help
send PERL/perl5.0/INDEX
end
The path-line may be omitted if your message contains a normal
From:-line. You will receive a help-file and an index of the
directory that contains the Perl stuff.
If all else fails, mail to Larry usually suffices.
